Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 3 tablespoons curry paste

  • 1 (3/4 inch thick) slice ginger, minced

  • 1 ¼ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cubed

  • cup peanut butter

  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 3 tablespoons fish sauce

  • 3 tablespoons tamarind paste

  • 3 cups peeled, cubed potatoes

  • 1 (13.5 ounce) can coconut milk

  • 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Directions

  1. Gather the ingredients.

  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in curry paste and minced ginger; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add in cubed chicken, and cook until the pieces turn white on the outside, about 3 minutes.

  3. Mix in peanut butter, brown sugar, fish sauce, and tamarind paste, stirring to combine. Add potatoes and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender and the chicken pieces are no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes.
