  • 1 cup snap peas

Sauces and Pastes

  • 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk

  • 1 tbsp fish sauce

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Place the chicken breast pieces, coconut milk, red curry paste, sliced bell pepper, and snap peas in the crockpot. Stir well to evenly distribute the curry paste and coconut milk for consistent flavor.
  2. Cook: Set the crockpot to low heat and cook the curry for 6 to 7 hours. This slow cooking process allows the chicken to become tender and the flavors to fully meld.

  • You can substitute chicken breast with chicken thighs for a juicier texture.
  • Serve this curry with steamed jasmine rice or rice noodles to complete the meal.
  • The curry can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently before serving.
  • If you prefer a vegetarian option, substitute chicken with tofu and use a vegetarian fish sauce alternative.
