Ingredients

4 servings:

450 g chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)

3 tbsp creamy peanut butter

10 g ginger

1 clove garlic

0.5 tsp tsp red curry paste

1 lime

2 tsp coconut milk

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp honey

10 g cilantro

3 tbsp sesame oil (divided)

1 tbsp water

1 tsp salt

2 tbsp vegetable oil

1 tbsp sesame seeds

Instructions

Step 1

Peel ginger and garlic and add to a food processor with curry paste, juice from half the lime, coconut milk, soy sauce, and honey. Process to make a marinade. Cut the other half of the lime into small wedges and set aside for serving. Wash cilantro, chop roughly, and set aside. Cut chicken breast into strips and place in a medium-sized bowl. Pour in just over half of the sauce and some of the sesame oil into the bowl with the chicken. Mix to combine, and cover with plastic wrap. Rest for at least 2 hrs. or overnight in the fridge.

Step 2

Mix the remaining marinade with peanut butter, water, remaining sesame oil, and salt in a small bowl to make the peanut sauce. Add more water if needed to get the consistency you desire.

Enjoy!
