**Note: If you would like to add chicken to this recipe, you can sauté sliced chicken breast in a pan with oil while your green curry paste is cooking. Once chicken has a slight brown color to it, transfer the chicken to sheet tray and finish in the oven at 350 degrees for approx 10min. Remove the chicken from the oven and let rest 5min before mixing with the Thai Green Curry sauce.
