Add curry paste, and saute 2 minutes, blending paste with garlic and oil and scraping up any browned bits. 3. Add remainder of coconut milk and solids to saucepan and mix well, scraping any browned bits. Add brown sugar, fish sauce, and 2 TBS lime juice, mixing well. Bring to a boil, and add browned chicken thighs to pan, making sure curry covers thighs. Reduce heat to low and cover pan. Simmer about 20 minutes. 4. Uncover pan and add sweet potato chunks. Cover pan and simmer another 20 minutes. 5. Remove chicken thighs from pan. Remove meat from bone and cut into large pieces. Return chicken to pan along with peas. Simmer another 5 minutes. 6. To make chili-lime sauce, combine chili-lime salt with lime juice, and put into 4 individual dipping bowls. Serve curry hot with sticky white rice and chili-lime sauce on the side (for dipping chicken pieces into). Sprinkle chopped basil or cilantro over for garnish. Makes 4 servings.

CHILI COCONUT CHICKEN CURRY

I came up with this the other night it was very good, my son thought it was a bit too spicy, but my hubby who is not into anything that has to much spice loved it, so I guess make your choice. I made just with Kumara as the side instead of rice but feel free to mess around with recipe.
