Recipe Ingredients
 2 teaspoons canola oil

1 medium red bell pepper , cut into 1- to 2-inch-long julienne strips

1 medium onion , halved and sliced

1 clove garlic , minced

1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger

1-2 teaspoons red curry paste , to taste (see Ingredient note)

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts , cut into 1-inch cubes

1 teaspoon light brown sugar

1 1/2 cups cauliflower florets

2 cups baby spinach

1 tablespoon lime juice

Lime wedges



Recipe Directions
  1. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and onion; cook, stirring often, until beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Add garlic, ginger and curry paste; stir to mix. Add chicken and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in broth, coconut milk, fish sauce (or soy sauce) and brown sugar; bring to a simmer. Add cauliflower, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the cauliflower is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in spinach and lime juice; cook just until spinach has wilted. Serve immediately, with lime wedges. Vegetarian variation: Substitute 1 pound extra-firm tofu (drained) for the chicken and vegetable broth for chicken broth.
