Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour or cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari, divided
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce or additional soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup Thai red curry paste
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 cups chopped kale
  • 3 squares ramen noodles, seasoning packets discarded
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh basil or cilantro

Instructions

  1. Toss chicken with flour until evenly coated. Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium-high heat and brown chicken until lightly golden, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add garlic, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and sesame seeds to chicken; cook 30 seconds until fragrant. Remove chicken mixture to a plate.
  3. Add remaining butter and mushrooms to pot. Sauté until mushrooms are softened and beginning to brown, about 4-5 minutes.
  4. Pour in chicken broth, coconut milk, remaining soy sauce, fish sauce, peanut butter, curry paste, and ginger. Whisk until smooth.
  5. Add bell pepper and kale. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer for 5 minutes.
  6. Add ramen noodles and return chicken to the pot. Cover and simmer 3-4 minutes until noodles are tender and chicken is cooked through.
  7. Stir in fresh herbs just before serving. Ladle into bowls and top with optional garnishes.
