Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 cup rice flour or cornstarch
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Vegetable oil (enough for deep frying, about 3 cups)
  • 1/4 cup Thai chili sauce
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise or plain yogurt
  • 1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup pickled carrots, thinly sliced
  • Fresh cilantro leaves
  • Fresh Thai basil leaves

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken by mixing coconut milk, curry powder, garlic, salt, and sugar in a bowl. Add chicken thighs and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  2. Prepare the coating by mixing rice flour (or cornstarch) with salt and pepper on a plate.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C). Remove chicken from marinade, dredge in the dry mixture, and fry for about 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown.

  5. Assemble sandwiches by spreading sauce on toasted buns and layering with fried chicken, sliced cucumbers, pickled carrots, and fresh herbs.
