Step 2
While rice is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large wok over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes or until browned. Remove to a plate or bowl.
Step 3
Add remaining oil to wok, then add onion and carrot and cook for 3-4 minutes or until softened.
Step 4
Add the chicken back to the wok along with the curry paste, stirring well to combine.
Step 5
Stir through the coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar, green beans and zucchini and simmer for 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
Step 6
Divide brown rice between bowls, top with curry and sprinkle with coriander, if using.
Food safety tip: ensure chicken is cooked all the way through and store any leftovers appropriately (see tips on reducing waste).
