1 lb (454 g) boneless, skinless chicken, cut into thin strips
1 tsp (5 mL) each, baking soda and corn starch
1 tbsp (15 mL) low sodium, gluten-free soy sauce
2 tbsp (30 mL) vegetable oil
1 cup (250 mL) snap peas, trimmed
1 cup (250 mL) sliced red pepper
1 cup (250 mL) red onion, sliced

做法
Step 1
In saucepan, combine rice with ½ cup (125 mL) coconut milk and 1 ½ cups (375 mL) broth.
Stir.
Bring to boil over medium-high heat and reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until liquid has been absorbed, about 45 minutes.
Remove from heat.
Step 2
Meanwhile, in bowl, combine chicken with baking soda, cornstarch and soy sauce, mixing well to coat chicken.
Let sit while preparing vegetables.
Step 3
In large heavy skillet, heat oil over medium heat.
Cook chicken just until browned on the outside, about 5 minutes.
Transfer to clean bowl (will not be cooked through, will finish cooking in sauce).
Add snap peas, red pepper and onions; sprinkle with salt and pepper, stirring frequently until onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in curry paste; cook, until paste begins to darken, about 3 minutes.
Add remaining coconut milk, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
Add remaining chicken broth and reserved chicken and bring to a simmer.
Step 5
Cook until vegetables are tender crisp and sauce is slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in basil and lime juice.
Serve over brown coconut rice.
