Introduction

This recipe tastes as good or better than getting yellow curry chicken from a Thai restaurant. It has a little big more fiber though due to the brown rice and sweet potatoes instead of white rice and white potatoes. This is a recipe I've made many times. It is always a hit whenever I share it, and people always ask for the recipe. If you have an Asian store near you, this is a good place to find the fish sauce, coconut milk, and yellow curry paste. Even if you can find it in other stores, this is where it is usually cheapest. This recipe tastes as good or better than getting yellow curry chicken from a Thai restaurant.
