Panang Chicken Curry with Basil

By Tamipri

We used Panang curry paste by Taste of Thai that comes in foil bags in the ethnic section of the supermarket. You can substitute red or green curry paste for the Panang. Serve over jasmine rice so you won?t miss a drop.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons panang curry paste, (1.75-ounce package)
