Step 1
Season the 2 chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken until golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.
Step 2
Add 2 tbsp yellow curry paste and stir for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in 1 cup coconut milk and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits.
Step 3
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer the chicken in the sauce until cooked through and the sauce thickens slightly, about 8 minutes. The chicken should feel firm and reach 165°F.
Step 4
Serve the chicken with the sauce spooned over, sprinkle with 1 tsp black sesame seeds, and place 2 bread sticks on the side for dipping.
Step 5
Garnish with microgreens if desired.
