Ingredients

    - 8 oz. thin rice noodles
    - 1.5 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1 inch strips)
    - 2 tbs EVOO
    - 1 16 oz. package frozen veggies of your choice (I used broccoli) thawed
    - 1 14 oz. can lite coconut milk
    - 1/2 cup water
    - 1 tsp sugar
    - 1 tbs fish sauce
    - 1 tsp red curry paste
    - 1/4 tsp salt
    - 1/4 tsp pepper
    - 1/4 cup fresh basil
    (OPTIONAL) red pepper flakes

Tips

- I added extra red pepper flakes because we like things spicy!
- You could also use a little less curry paste to keep down the bolder flavors.
- The first time I made this, I cut my chicken in chunks. Smaller strips work better.
- You could use any stir fry veggies!


Directions

- Soak rice noodles according to package directions, drain. Season chicken with salt & pepper (and optional red pepper flakes if you like things spicy!)

- In a large skillet, cook chicken in hot EVOO for 8-10 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Add stir fry veggies and cook for a few more minutes. Remove mixture from skillet.

- In the same skillet, combine coconut milk, water, sugar, fish sauce, curry paste, a little more salt & pepper & bring to a boil. Stir in rice noodles & chicken mixture. Return to a boil, then reduce heat & simmer uncovered until noodles are tender but still firm and the sauce has thickened. Be careful - it will start to stick to the bottom of the pan. Plate & sprinkle with fresh basil.
