Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups uncooked string beans, washed and well-drained, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 teaspoons jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
1 medium garlic clove, peeled and smashed
1 cup coconut, milk. divided
2 tablespoons green curry paste
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon lemongrass, minced
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into thin strips

Steps:

  • Stream green beans in a steamer basket on stove in a microwave, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well; set aside.

Add remaining ¼ cup of coconut milk (sauce will be smooth again). Simmer until hot, about 1 minute more; remove garlic clove and serve over rice.
