An intense Thai paste permeates this chicken just enough to give it a juicy texture and a flavorful taste.

More About This Recipe

  • Thai red curry may seem intimidating, but it’s as easy as tossing a few ingredients into a food processor. Having a few curry paste recipes under your belt is a huge plus in the kitchen, because they are so versatile! I have used curry pastes to spice up some rice, as pasta sauce, as a spread on a sandwich, and now as a flavorful marinade for chicken. This Thai Red Curry Marinated Chicken came out great. A perfect level of spice and flavor, and a beautiful red color. It went great with some lime-dressed rice noodles. Very tasty! The flavors here aren't crazy strong, so even a Thai food beginner would enjoy this meal.
