We had this tasty Thai Red Curry just last night. I decided to try and make it in the slow cooker rather than in a pan (like I usually do). The result? The chicken was perfectly soft and infused with the red curry paste. I did add twice the amount of curry paste as recommended in my recipe below – I like it with a bit of kick. If you do too, feel free to add an extra tablespoon or 2.
The great thing about this recipe is it came in at just 282 calories per serving! Yay, room for a nice portion of rice too. I’m currently researching healthy and low calorie recipes for my slow cooker recipe book. I think this one has just earned itself a page 🙂
Enjoy this one and let me know what you think!
