     Thai Coconut Chicken over Rice

Category   Entrees - Maindishes
Sub Category   None
Servings   6

Ingredients
1-2 Tbls coconut oil
1 1/2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken, cubed
1 tsp grated lime peel (or lemon peel)
1 tsp grated fresh ginger (or 1/2 tsp ground ginger)
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 to 1 tsp green curry paste OR 2 Serrano chiles seeded, finely diced
1/4 c finely chopped cilantro (or parsley)
1 can 14 oz coconut milk or light coconut milk
1 Tbls packed brown sugar
 
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbls soy sauce (can use low sodium)
1 can 14 oz chicken broth
1/2 c celery, chopped
1/2 c. onion, diced
1 tsp dried basil
2 c. each broccoli flowerets and sliced carrots, steamed
1 can water chestnuts, drained, chopped
Toppings - steamed veggies, tomatoes, sliced almonds, coconut, cilantro, green onion

Instructions
In nonstick wok or 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 Tbls coconut oil over high heat. Add chicken; stir-fry 2 to 3 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center. Removed chicken from pan. Add remaining 1 Tbls coconut oil to pan. Add celery, onion, lime peel, ginger, garlic, chilies and cilantro; stir-fry 1 minute.
Pour coconut milk and chicken broth over veggies; stir in the chicken. Stir in brown sugar, salt, basil and soy sauce. Reduce heat to medium. Simmer uncovered 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until liquid thickens.
Serve in bowls over scoops of your favorite rice (we like brown rice or jasmine rice). Top with any combination of the following- Steamed broccoli and/or carrots Sugar snap peas Shredded Coconut Sliced Almonds Chopped Peanuts Cherry Tomatoes, halved Green Onion, sliced Cilantro or parsley, chopped
This is absolutely delicious, and a great way to use up any veggies you have on hand. We put all of the toppings in small bowls and let the kids each build their own perfect bowl. If you prefer, you can cook chicken in the crock pot or poach it, and simply add shredded/diced chicken to the sauteed veggies, allowing it to brown up a bit before adding the liquid. We use left over chicken for this sometimes, too.
