For a more kid-friendly, non-spicy version, just do steps 2-4. It’s still super-moist and delicious – and even faster and easier! On really rushed days, you could even skip the onion/garlic/ginger in step 3 and just add the coconut milk – it’s still good!

Serve with steamed rice.

    I did leave out step 1 for my kids and they LOVED it! It was easy and perfect for a quick weekday meal the entire family could eat. I love coconut milk so I used two cans so we would have lots of extra sauce to put over rice!

      I made this for dinner tonight. it was delicious! Served it with rice, naan and peas. I used fresh cilantro instead of the ground coriander and left the rub on the chicken breasts for an hour before cooking. I also used light coconut milk. I'll be making this again! Thanks for a wonderful recipe!

          I made this a few nights ago for my family and we were all really happy with it. It was simlar to the Thai Basil Chicken that I make often, but was a nice change of pace. Nice to have another simple but tasty chicken dish for the rotation! I doubled the recipe and only used 1 can of coconut milk. It was still plenty rich and had plenty of sauce.

              Oh sweet mama - I made this tonight and it was delicious! I used chicken thighs instead of breasts. It was served over brown rice with sauteed asparagus on the side. Wine recommendation - Gruner Veltliner.

                  It was very tasty. I am just accustomed to more bite in my coconut dishes. I think I will try it with some serranos and some fish sauce. If you like I can post that recipe and you can compare?
