Thai Chicken with Peanut Sauce

I guess you could say this is semi-homemade.....but oh so good!

Thai Chicken with Peanut Sauce

2-3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 inch piece of fresh ginger (grated)
2-3 cloves of garlic (minced)
pinch of red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon of curry powder
2 tablespoons of veggie oil
1 package of Taste of Thai Peanut Sauce
1 can of Coconut Milk
1 tsp of chili paste

Cut chicken breasts into bite size chunks. Mix grated ginger, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, curry powder and oil in large zip lock bag. Add chicken. Marinate for atleast an hour.

Mix contents of peanut sauce and coconut milk & prepare according to package instructions. Add tsp of chili paste (or more if you like more heat).

Heat large skillet on medium high. Saute marinated chicken until cooked.

I usually also make some jasmine rice and steamed broccoli. I arrange it so the rice is in the middle of the plate, surrounded by broccoli and then place the chicken on top of the rice and spoon sauce over.

This is an easy meal to make even after a long day at work....Enjoy!
