Step 1: Sauté Aromatics
- In a medium pot, melt a tablespoon of coconut oil over medium heat. Once shimmering, add minced garlic and freshly grated ginger, sautéing for 3 to 4 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.
Step 2: Combine Broth Ingredients
- Stir in a tablespoon of red curry paste, followed by 4 cups of chicken broth and 1 cup of boiling water. Pour in one can of full-fat coconut milk and add a splash of fish sauce and lime juice. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Step 3: Cook the Chicken
- Add boneless chicken thighs to the pot, ensuring they are submerged in the broth. Cover the pot with a lid and reduce the heat to low, allowing the broth to simmer for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is tender.
Step 4: Prepare the Rice
- Cook 1 cup of jasmine rice separately. Rinse the rice until the water runs clear, then combine with 1.5 cups of water in a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low for 15 minutes.
Step 5: Assemble and Serve
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and slice it into bite-sized pieces. Serve the coconut broth over a scoop of cooked rice and top with the chicken pieces.
Step 6: Garnish Delightfully
- Garnish with thinly sliced green onions and fresh cilantro. Serve lime wedges on the side.

Notes
Ensure your chicken thighs are uniform in size for even cooking and use fresh garlic and ginger for maximum flavor. Don't skip the lime juice for brightness.
