Nit Noi's Thai Chicken Curry

By jeknudson

This is absolutely the best Thai chicken curry in Houston. I used to eat this dish every chance I got. Also the older Bush's used to eat here for Thai cuisine. You may also substitute tofu, beef or shrimp for the chicken if you like.

Ingredients

• 1 (4-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 1 tablespoon red chili paste
• 1 cup coconut milk (or lite)
