    From the Test Kitchen

    This flavor-packed dish features tender bites of chicken seared in a coating of warming vadouvan curry powder, then topped with a unique combo of creamy ranch dressing and spicy yellow curry paste—a staple of Thai cuisine made from hot chiles, lemongrass, turmeric, and more. It all comes together over a bed of fluffy white rice, bok choy, and carrots tossed with fragrant sesame oil.

    1 Cook the rice

    Carefully rinse the rice (sifting through for any impurities). Drain thoroughly. In a medium pot, combine the rice, a big pinch of salt, and 2 cups of water. Heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, without stirring, 13 to 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and fluff with a fork. Cover to keep warm.

    Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce. Peel the carrots; halve lengthwise, then thinly slice crosswise. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Cut off and discard the root ends of the bok choy; roughly chop. Roughly chop the peanuts. In a bowl, whisk together the ranch dressing, honey, and as much of the curry paste as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be.
