Tangy Thai Chicken
This is just another way to prepare chicken breasts.
Steps
Combine curry paste and oil in a bowl.
Stir until paste is softened.
Mix in 3 / 4 of the coconut milk and taste the mixture.
If it tastes bland , add more curry paste and salt , until it is pleasantly pungent.
If too spicy , add a little more coconut milk.
Place chicken into a plastic zip lock bag , pour in marinade and seal.
Toss to coat evenly.
Allow to sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
For a more intense flavor , marinate for several hours in refrigerator.
Drain and discard the marinade.
In a skillet or on a grill , on medium heat , grill the chicken 10 to 12 minutes , turning onto each side twice.
Brush each side with a few tablespoons of chili sauce.
The chicken is done when it is white throughout , but still juicy and the sauce is a bit caramelized in spots.
Serve the chicken breasts whole or thickly sliced and mounded on a platter over rice.
Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and chopped cilantro.
You can also serve a little chili sauce on the side.
