Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Chicken breast
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 0.5 cup Peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Roasted peanuts, chopped (optional for garnish)
- 4 cups Cooked jasmine rice (optional for serving)
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season them with salt and ground black pepper.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until they are golden brown and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Stir in the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, coconut milk, and red chili flakes. Mix well to create a smooth sauce.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to coat it evenly with the peanut sauce. Let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more soy sauce, lime juice, or chili flakes as desired.
Once ready, remove the skillet from heat and garnish the Peanut Chicken Yummy with chopped cilantro and roasted peanuts if using.
Serve hot over cooked jasmine rice or enjoy on its own.
