Chicken w/ Peanut Sauce image

This was inspired by my favorite Thai food. We always eat it with sushi (seasoned rice). So the whole meal comes out to a japanese/thai medley. This meal was an experiment and the first time I made this i was worried that the flavors of the sauce and seasoned rice would not mix well...this has become one of our favorite meals...kinda sweet and tangy.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 medium onion (chopped)
1 clove(s) garlic (minced or crushed)
2 - green onion (chopped)
3-6 - chicken tenderloins (cut to bite size pieces)

1 dash(es) salt

Steps:

  • Sautee onion, add garlic and green onions. Cook for 2-3 minutes (till fragrant).
  • Meanwhile coat chicken with lemon pepper then add to onion mixture in pan. Cook through. (chicken should be white all the way through) Don't over cook or chicken will be dry.
  • Add peanut butter, coconut milk and salt to taste. Bring to a rolling boil and immediately remove from heat.
  • Serve over rice. We like it with sushi style seasoned rice. (i'll add my recipe for that too)
