The Best Massaman Thai Chicken Curry Recipe

So last week was the premier of my new cooking show “Horlacher & Walker” and we debuted the show with this amazing Massaman Thai Chicken Curry recipe.  If you are not familiar with Thai food, Massaman Curry is sort of a peanut flavored coconut curry.  It was amazing and very easy to prepare.  Our video preparation of the dish is below which ends up on some very entertaining tangents…like mushroom hunting at the airport, removing maggots during food prep, Shane getting maced at a concert, matchmaking for chef Shane, and much more.  Check out the video here:

As you can see, we had a lot of fun making this dish together and it was so good.  My husband stole all of the leftovers the following day he loved it so much!  As we mentioned in the video, the great thing about Thai curry is that you can throw in as many or few random vegetables that you’d like or have on hand.  The most important ingredients are the coconut milk, curry paste, and palm sugar.  These ingredients require you to go to a specialty Asian Market, but I’ve supplied links below to those items on Amazon if you’d prefer to have them shipped straight to your house.
