Thai Red Curry with Chicken and Vegetables
Thai food is one of my favorite types of cuisines. When I visited Thailand several years ago, I actually went to cooking school for a day and it was one of my most favorite days while there. This Thai Red Curry with Chicken and Vegetables dish is so good! It's packed with tons of flavor and spice. It's bold, creamy, rich and sure to satisfy. You could very easily swap out the chicken for shrimp or scallops and use whatever vegetables you have on hand. I like to serve this dish with basmati rice and garnish it with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
