Do you like curry? A thai green/ red curry is easy and quick.

Buy a jar of red/ green curry paste, a tin of coconut milk and pack of chicken fillets. You'll need some rice too.

Fry your paste for a few minutes, add the coconut milk and bring to the simmer. Add in your chopped up chicken and simmer for about 15 minutes.

Serve with the rice. Easy!

^ If you only want it to be something you've made before there's no point in asking here as we're not gonna know what you've cooked in the past!

Moved to Cooking & Recipes...

If you are not an experienced cook - why not check out the Easy Peasy Recipes thread?

Also, if you still want ideas from other posters you really need to give us more info, such as your likes/dislikes. This'll help narrow things down a bit.
