Recipe Notes
You should be able to find fish sauce and red curry paste in the international isle of your grocery store; if not, any Asian market will have them.
FOR FREEZER-TO-CROCK PREP: Label frozen bag of boneless chicken thighs or breasts as “Coconut Thai Chicken – S” with a Sharpie. Put all the veggies in another freezer bag. Blend the coconut milk, broth, peanut flour or peanut butter, and seasonings except red pepper flakes and add to the second bag, then add the pepper flakes. Label bag with name of recipe and write “Needs Trim Healthy Noodles” as a reminder, then put both bags in the freezer next to each other. The morning before cooking (24 hours prior), place both bags in the refrigerator to thaw. Next morning, pour out the excess fluid from the chicken and add the chicken to the crock pot. Add the bag of sauce and veggies, and the Trim Healthy Noodles.
