Pad Prik King

Pad Prik King
Pad Prik King is a simple stir fry of chicken and green beans in a sweet and spicy red curry paste sauce. This is different than red curry, since there is no coconut milk in this recipe. The addition of a salted duck egg adds a creamy saltiness to the sauce. This meal is ready from prep work to finish in 25 minutes. This also costs about $5 to make for 4 large servings.
