Easy, One-Pan Thai Prawn Green Curry
This easy, Thai prawn green curry is a nutritious and balanced meal. Not to mention, super simple and delicious!
I’m on a big one-pan meal kick lately, with this:
which are a couple of my most popular recipes!
These recipes are easy and quick to prepare, and just as easy to clean up (this is my favourite part!). I also find that one-pan meals are a great option for involving your kids in. They’re simple and not too overwhelming or complicated.
One of my favourite dishes to order when we go out for Thai food is green curry prawns, so I decided to do some experimenting at home and found the best recipe. It turned out amazing – even my often-fussy three-year-old sous chef loved it! I can’t wait for you to try it 🙂

Love green curry but have never made myself! This looks delish!
It’s SO good!

Me too, it’s my fave!
Looks like you had some great help cooking this up! 🙂 Looks amazing!
She’s a good little helper!! 🙂
I love the photos of your daughter! I usually make red curry, but I’ve had green curry paste in my fridge for months. I’m now inspired!
Green curry is my favourite! Let me know how your green curry meal turns out!
One pan meals are the best! Thank you for this easy recipe!
Made this tonight for the first time. Sarah – this was SOOO good! It’s a keeper for sure. And so easy. I could eat this every few days.
Yay! So glad it was a success!
A great recipe! Quick and flavourful. I added carrots and red peppers into the mix. I’m curious to know what brand of green curry paste you used. I halved your suggestion and added only 1 TBSP of ‘A Taste of Thai’ curry paste and it was quite spicy and I love spice. Thanks again for sharing the recipe.
Hi Andrea!
I use that same brand!
