Notes
MAKE AHEAD – Best cooked and eaten immediately. Cut the chicken and vegetables in advance and store them separately, refrigerated in air-tight containers for up to 2 days to help speed up your meal preparation.
LEFTOVERS – Refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave until piping hot. Green curry can be frozen for up to 2 months; however, its texture may change and become a little grainy as it thaws. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating in the microwave until piping hot.
