what you’ll need:
1 1/2 lbs chicken thighs or breasts
1 tbsp avocado oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 cups cooked brown rice
1 small bag broccoli
1/2 cup roasted unsalted peanuts
Freshly chopped cilantro (for garnish)
FOR THE PEANUT SAUCE
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup coconut milk
2 tbsp coconut aminos
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp sriracha
1 tbsp minced garlic
2 tsp ginger powder
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
Instructions:
Cut the chicken into cubes and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Preheat a large pan to medium heat and add the avocado oil. Once hot add the chicken and cook for about 10 minutes stirring occasionally until the chicken is fully cooked.
Meanwhile make the peanut sauce. To a blender add all the sauce ingredients and blend until smooth. If you like a runnier consistency then feel free to add a tiny bit of cold water until you’ve reached your desired consistency.
Once the chicken is cooked, turn the heat to low and pour about 1/2 of the peanut sauce over the chicken and mix well. Set the rest of the sauce aside for later. Finally, add the roasted peanuts and incorporate.
To each container add some rice, peanut chicken, and broccoli. Top the chicken with a drizzle of the peanut sauce as well as some freshly chopped cilantro (optional). Enjoy!
