Direction
For Seasoning the chicken
- To season the chicken, combine the kosher salt, freshly cracked black pepper, onion powder, ground ginger, turmeric powder, and garlic powder in a medium bowl. Stir with a spoon until all of the spices are combined. Chicken breasts should be diced into bite-sized pieces and added to the bowl. Mix well enough so that the seasonings and spices are applied evenly on the chicken. Place aside.
For Preparing the fresh ingredients
- Preparing the fresh ingredients can be done while the chicken is marinating. As stated in the "Ingredients" section, chop the red onion, garlic, ginger, huge red chili, red chilies, yellow chilies, red bell pepper, baby corn, and coriander. Snow bean ends should be trimmed, and any hairy bits should be removed and thrown away.
For Making the Thai Sweet Chili Peanut Sauce
- Thai Sweet Chili Peanut Sauce Preparation is very simple. In a dish or measuring cup, combine the Thai Sweet Chili Sauce, Light Soy Sauce, Peanut Butter, Rice Vinegar, Sesame Oil, and Crushed Red Pepper Chili Flakes. With a spoon, blend ingredients until smooth, thick paste forms.
For Making the Corn Starch Slurry
- To make a slurry of cornstarch, mix water, and cornstarch in a small bowl or measuring cup. Set aside after combining with a spoon until a slurry has formed.
For Making the Peanut Butter Chicken Curry
- In order to cook the chicken, preheat a big deep sauté pan or wok over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. When the wok is heated, add the chicken that has been marinated and distribute the pieces equally. Simmer for one minute without stirring, then toss and cook for an additional four to five minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked. Place aside in a clean basin after transfer.
- The remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil should be heated over medium-high heat in the same wok or pan (there is no need to clean it). Add the red onion, ginger, and garlic once it is hot. Sauté until aromatic, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Chilis and vegetables in a stir-fry: Add the huge red chilies that have been thinly sliced and chopped, and stir-fry for one minute to blend. Add the snow beans, baby corn, and red and yellow bell pepper, and stir-fry for a minute or so until they start to soften.
- Reduce the heat to low, add the coconut milk, and stir in the Thai Sweet Chili Peanut Sauce to simmer. Pour the cornstarch slurry into the pan as well after giving it a short toss with a spoon (the cornstarch will have settled at the bottom). After thoroughly combining everything, add the cooked chicken and stir again. Stirring once in between to prevent the peanut butter from adhering to the bottom of the wok, simmer the mixture with the lid on for 5–6 minutes.
- Add the coriander, brown sugar, and lime juice by stirring. Reopen the wok's lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Add the mint flakes, brown sugar, lime juice that has just been squeezed, and half of the coriander. After one minute of simmering, turn the heat off.
- To serve, transfer to a serving dish or bowl and top with chopped peanuts, crushed red chili flakes, and the remaining chopped coriander. Serve right away with heated steaming rice and more lime wedges for optional squeeze-on-demand.
Bonus Tip
- You can also try some of the optional toppings, which include the reserved coriander, chopped unsalted (or barely salted) oil-roasted peanuts, and a dusting of red pepper flakes.
- If desired, serve the peanut butter chicken with steaming white rice and lime wedges for squeezing.
- You can use any smooth (creamy) peanut butter, which already comes with salt and sugar. If you choose, you may substitute a crunchy peanut butter. Although you can use natural peanut butter, I do not advise it because the sauce will be less rich and creamy.
- To your liking, adjust the amount of spice. By altering (or deleting totally) the quantity of ground cayenne, fresh red chilies, and crushed red pepper flakes, you are free to make this curry as mild or as hot as you choose.
