Directions

Roughly chop the ingredients for the green curry paste, then blend into a paste using a blender or immersion blender.

In a large skillet or wok, melt the coconut oil over medium high heat.

Add the chicken, salt and pepper. Sautee about 8 min, until the chicken browns.

Add the bell peppers and onion, and sautee another 3 min.

Transfer the curry paste to the skillet or wok and heat through until fragrant, about 2 min.

Add the coconut milk and stir until well combined. Bring the chicken curry to a low simmer, and allow the flavours to fully infuse by letting it cook another 2-3 min.

Serve over cauliflower rice or konjac.
