And who wants to sit and read a long, boring post about my childhood, or current idiosyncrasies, or latest obsession when they’re staring down the BEST part of the weekend (as previously stated in blogs such as this one)? Not me, that’s who, and I’m guessing that we might be in the same boat. So instead of the usual narcissism, here is a freebie – an easy, delicious, healthy, flexible recipe that will have you slurping some red curry noods before you can say “Tommy, don’t eat that Tide Pod!”. Enjoy your weekend, folks!
One Pot Red Curry Noodles with Chicken
Feel free to substitute pork, beef, tofu or seafood in lieu of America's favorite, flying protein - chicken. If you're doing something like seafood make sure you cut back on the cooking time because overcooked seafood is GUHROSS. All veggies would be a fine idea as well. I used a quick cooking, no soak, vacuum packed, soft rice noodle for these (the future is here people), but if you are using the dry rice noodles that look more like sticks just give them a 10 to 15 minute soak in super hot water before adding them to the curry.
