Ingredients

Dan-O’s Cajun Seasoning
1 lb cubed chicken breast
1 tbsp cooking oil
1 small can of baby corn, drained
1 small can of sliced water chestnuts, drained
1 small can of sliced bamboo shoots, drained
2 tsp minced garlic
1 - 2 tsp red curry paste (optional for adding spiciness)
1 can of coconut milk, shaken before opening
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions, plus more for garnish
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
cooked jasmine rice, for serving

Let’s Make It!

Grab the chicken cubes and sprinkle generously with Dan-O's Cajun Seasoning.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until it's no longer pink on the outside but not fully cooked through, about 2 minutes. We're just getting things started here.
Next, add the garlic and vegetables. Hit everything with another shake of Dan-O's Cajun Seasoning and stir it all together.
Pour in the coconut milk, add as much red curry paste as your spice-loving heart desires, and toss in 2 more tablespoons of Dan-O's Cajun Seasoning. Stir everything together until it's rich, creamy, and packed with bold flavor.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. This gives the chicken time to finish cooking and lets all those flavors come together.
Stir in a handful of scallions and parsley, then cook for another few minutes to brighten everything up.
Remove from the heat and serve over a bed of fluffy rice. Finish with extra scallions and parsley for a fresh pop of flavor and color. Yum Yum Get Ya Sum!®
