Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat a large pot over medium. Add curry paste and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Pour in coconut milk and vegetable broth, whisking to dissolve the paste. Bring to a gentle simmer.

  3. Step 3

    Add chickpeas, bell pepper, and zucchini. Simmer until vegetables are tender-crisp, about 10 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in lime juice and zest. Taste and season with salt and pepper to balance the heat and brightness.

  5. Step 5

    Ladle into bowls and top with fresh basil or cilantro. Serve hot with lime wedges on the side.
