There’s nothing quite like realizing you’ve perfectly re-created one of your favorite restaurant dishes. This dish is Thai-inspired chicken with spicy peanut sauce on a bed of spinach.
1. Pour coconut milk in a large pan and bring to a boil. Add chicken breast pieces, lower temperature to medium/low, and let simmer until chicken is completely cooked, about 7-8 minutes.
2. Remove chicken from coconut milk and let sit. (A slotted spoon works best for this).
3. Add peanut butter, brown sugar, red curry paste, and fish sauce to the coconut milk and raise the temperature slightly. Stir constantly until everything is melted together and delicious. Add cayenne pepper if you like the extra kick. Now is the time to add a few more dashes of fish sauce, a sprinkle or two of brown sugar, etc. to suit your tastes. Add chopped peanuts, if desired.
4. Add spinach to the sauce and stir until almost wilted (a minute or less). Remove from heat. Add chicken pieces to the mixture; stir so that everything is nice and intermingled.
5. Serve over a bed of steamed brown rice or rice noodles.
Note: red curry paste and fish sauce can be found in the Asian foods aisle of your local chain grocery store.

This sounds like the Pra Laam I get at my favorite local Thai place. LOVE it, and I must try this! Thanks for the recipe!
