Then, we are also going to have: 1 tablespoon of peanut oil, a finely chopped onion, a thinly sliced red chili free from its seeds, 2 crushed garlic gloves, 4 finely shredded kaffir lime leaves, 75 grams of Thai red curry paste, 500 ml of chicken stock, 2 tablespoons of fish sauce, 200 grams of chopped green beans, coriander sprigs, and Asian shallots.

DIRECTION
To begin with, you have to preheat the oven to 180° C. It is important to complete this step before every preparation. Then, take an ovenproof pan to heat your peanut oil over medium-high heat, add chicken and let it turn to light brown before stopping the fire. It will take around 4 minutes to be browned. After that, remove the pieces of chicken and reserve them on a plate. Now, use the same flameproof pan with a medium heat fire and add onion, chili, garlic and kaffir lime leaves; cook for 3 minutes. Toss the Arborio rice and the curry paste into the pan and stir for one minute. All of these being done, you can return the brown pieces of chicken to the pan and add the 125 ml of chicken stock so that it will be brought to simmer. Cover your ovenproof pan and continue the cooking in the oven for 25 minutes. You will see that the cooking liquid will be absorbed if not totally. Now, remove your pan from the oven and add the coconut cream, the fish sauce and the beans, stir the mixture well and let it stand for 10 minutes.
