Thai Chicken Curry and Jasmine Basil Rice

This Thai Style Chicken Curry sounded delicious, and I had everything, especially since my garden peppers and basil are abundant.
Now my photos do not look appealing compared to theirs, but that is their job to market the recipe and to make you almost smell it from the page. I share my photos to show proof that I did make this. It is delicious! This is a different flavor to the chicken for us, and we enjoyed the change in our everyday go-to chicken recipes. My husband had the Jasmine rice with this dish, and I had cauliflower rice as I watch carbs.

We have plenty of leftovers as this made a lot, and it will last us for a couple more meals. I’ll share the recipe in the photos.

Reduce heat, cover and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in shrimp, cook 5-7 minutes longer or until shrimp turn pink.

Serve with rice

I used a green pepper and a red pepper – next time, I’ll add yellow and orange peppers also.

I winged it on the rice. I just made a large batch (figuring I’d make more when needed)

Every time we go to the ocean – I buy a community cookbook – I enjoy trying new seafood dishes that are not common in our area. This recipe is from a spiral bound community church program called Along the Shores of Florida

If you don’t like spicy – cut back on the hot sauce –
