Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the Panang curry paste and stir-fry for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour 200 ml of coconut milk into the pan and mix well with the curry paste. Cook until the oil starts to separate from the curry paste, about 5 minutes.
Add the sliced chicken breast to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is almost cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Pour in the remaining coconut milk and water to the pan. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer.
Stir in the fish sauce and palm sugar. Adjust the seasoning to taste, ensuring the right balance of salty and sweet flavors.
Add the sliced red bell pepper, carrot, and Kaffir lime leaves to the pan. Stir gently and let simmer for 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Turn off the heat and stir in the fresh basil leaves and lime juice. Let the curry rest for a couple of minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve hot with steamed jasmine rice and enjoy your soy-free Panang curry.
