1 lb Ground Chicken
1 Tbsp Oil
1 Onion, finely chopped
1 Green Bell Pepper, finely chopped
1 Celery Rib, finely chopped
3-4 Carrots, peeled and chopped
2 Tbsp Red Curry Paste
1 Tbsp Fish Sauce
1 Tbsp Ginger Paste
1 Tbsp Sugar
2 C Coconut Milk
1 C Chicken Broth
Salt, Pepper, and Garlic Powder to taste
Handful of basil, chopped
Preheat oven to 350*. In a bowl, combine the ground chicken, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Form meatballs and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until browned. Set aside.
For the sauce
Over medium heat, saute the trinity (onion, bell pepper and celery) and carrots until translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the curry paste, ginger paste and sugar, stirring to incorporate. Cook for 1-2 minutes allowing the sugar to dissolve. Add the coconut milk and chicken broth. Bring to a boil for a minute and bring it down to a simmer.
Return the browned meatballs and their juices to the sauce.
Cover and simmer for 25 minutes. Towards the end, stir in the copped basil. Serve immediately and enjoy!
