Thai Chicken Curry
3/03/2011Since my visit to Thai Essence I have been on somewhat of an Asian food kick. So last night it was chicken curry. Because the children don't like it too spicy, I tend to tone down the heat for them. Chad and I then add in chilis to our own servings to bring the heat that we love. This is a really easy, one pan, quick dinner option. Hopefully your family will love it as much as we do.
