weight watchers thai red chicken curry recipe

Yesterday I felt like cooking something a little more exotic, so I tried this chicken curry recipe. It turned out well, so you should try it if you like curry dishes.

I know there are some people who may not like the banana topping, so you can leave it out completely, or try replacing it with something more neutral (like carrots, bamboo shoots or pineapple chunks).
