Chicken Curry Over Thai Noodles

Curry Chicken Over Thai Noodles

A super rich tangy sauce envelopes chicken and tomatoes and covers Thai rice noodles.

  • 1 tsp olive oil

  • 1 each onion (peeled and diced)

  • 2 cloves garlic (peeled and minced)

  • 8 ounces chicken thighs (boneless, skinless, cut in small cubes)

  • 1 can diced tomatoes (drained)

  • 1/2 can pumpkin puree

  • 1 can evaporated milk

  • 1 tsp turmeric (or more, depending on your taste)

  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger

  • 1 tsp garlic powder or garlic seasoning

  • 8 ounces Thai rice noodles (cooked according to package directions)

  • 1 sprig cilantro (fresh, for garnish)

  1. Cook the Thai noodles according to the package instructions. We like to bring a pot of water to a boil, add the noodles, then turn off the stove and cover the pot. in 4-5 minutes, they are ready, just drain.

  2. Meanwhile, make the curry. Heat a large Dutch Oven pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil. Saute the onions and garlic until translucent, about 3 minutes.

  3. Add the chicken pieces and stir, cooking quickly. Add the tomatoes and coconut along with the seasonings. Keep stirring and cooking.

  4. Add the evaporated milk. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked and the sauce is thickened. Thin the sauce with a little broth or water if needed.

  5. Serve the hot curry over the Thai noodles. Garnish with sprigs of cilantro. Enjoy!
