Sponsored ads

Thai cuisine is known for its bold and complex flavors, and Red Thai Curry is no exception. Originating from the central region of Thailand, this curry has a rich history dating back centuries. The use of red chilies gives this curry its vibrant color and fiery heat. 

Traditionally, red chilies, garlic, shallots, lemongrass, galangal, and shrimp paste were pounded together to make Thai curry pastes. 

However, with the availability of pre-made curry pastes in stores today, it has become much easier to recreate this delicious dish at home.

Step-by-Step Instructions: Red Thai Coconut Curry Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

  • 907 grams Chicken Thighs (skinless, boneless)
  • 1/4 cup Thai Red Curry Paste (divided)
  • 1 tbsp Coconut Oil
  • 1/2 cup Red Onion (finely diced)
  • 1 1/4 cups Canned Coconut Milk (Full fat)

Directions

  • Preheat your oven to 400oF (204oC).
  • Rub the chicken thighs with half of the Thai red curry paste.
  • Heat the coconut oil in a cast iron or oven-safe skillet on the stovetop over medium heat. Saute the red onions in the remaining Thai red curry paste for about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the chicken thighs to the skillet and sear for 3 minutes per side. Add the coconut milk and bring it to a simmer.
  • Once the coconut milk is simmering, transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven, divide the chicken onto plates, and enjoy!

Notes

  • For a vegetarian option, substitute tofu or your favorite vegetables for the chicken.
  • If you prefer a spicier dish, add more Thai red curry paste to suit your taste.
  • You can serve it with rice, quinoa and cauliflower rice.
  • Don’t skip the garnishes! They add an extra layer of flavor and freshness to the dish. Garnish with sea salt, pepper, lime juice and chopped cilantro.
  • Feel free to get creative with your choice of vegetables, such as wilted kale, roasted asparagus and green peas. Bell peppers, carrots, and snap peas are all delicious additions to this curry.

Life Changing Morning exercises To Feel 10 Years Younger! Join me for Juicy Joints™—a life-changing head-to-toe morning routine flow created for perimenopause and menopausal women. We hydrate every joint to ease joint pain, sharpen balance and focus, calm stress, and finish with a smile that locks the habit into your brain’s reward circuits. 💜

Why this routine is truly life-changing
Morning mobility fights stiffness & boosts mood. Gentle motion first thing increases joint lubrication and reduces perceived pain in older adults 

Vision + vestibular drills steady balance. Eye-tracking exercises retrain the vestibulo-ocular reflex, which can weaken when middle-ear function changes during menopause 

Frozen-shoulder risk rises after 50. Regular scapular glides keep the shoulder capsule nourished, helping prevent adhesive capsulitis that’s linked to lower estrogen 

Thoracic mobility improves breath & posture. Corrective cat-cow and rib rotations reduce kyphosis and expand chest wall excursion, supporting deeper diaphragmatic breathing 

Slow diaphragmatic exhale calms the nervous system. Lengthened breathing stimulates the vagus nerve and can lower cortisol 

Hand-grip = brain health. Stronger grip is linked to better cognition and lower dementia risk 

Hip-to-toe drills refine balance. Intrinsic foot-muscle work and ankle proprioception training improve postural control and cut fall risk in adults 60 + 

Bouncing adds lymph flow & bone stimulus. Low-impact rebounding can aid lymphatic drainage and provide osteogenic loading for post-menopausal bone health 

A smile seals the deal. Pairing movement with positive emotion reinforces memory pathways and boosts adherence to healthy habits 

✅ How to use it
Do the full flow most mornings or pick 3-5 moves when time is tight.

Move in pain-free ranges—smaller is fine, consistency wins.

Support balance with a wall or chair as needed.

Pause if dizzy, blink, restart slower.

Finish with our Smile Tag—your brain loves a reward!
