Easy Thai Coconut Chicken

Here goes my first culinary adventure! This is a quick, easy and guilt-free dinner. I am doing guilt-free dinners because in order to lose a few extra pounds I have given up bread, pasta, and rice.

Here are the step by step instructions with pictures, to make a quick and painless dinner.

Ready, Set, Go!

Thai Coconut Chicken

1 lb. skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut in bite-sized piece

1/2 medium onion (optional, but I like it), chopped

Medium red Bell pepper, chopped

1can coconut milk (can use light or regular)

2 tsp hot sauce

1 tsp curry

Salt or seasoning salt to taste

Steps

Step 1: Heat 1 Tbsp oil in large skillet… I used peanut oil but any oil will work

Step 2: Chop onion… add to skillet and start sautéing

Step 3: Chop pepper and add. Cook until onion is nearly soft

Step 4: While you are cooking onion & peppers, chop chicken

Step 5: Add spices

Step 6: Add chicken… Stir until cooked through

Step 7: Add coconut milk

Cauliflower Rice

1 head cauliflower

Salt and pepper to taste

Steps

Step 1: Run cauliflower over cheese grader to make it rice size (this would be much easier with a food processor!)

Step 2: Microwave it in a covered dish for 6 minutes. DO NOT ADD WATER!!

Time to enjoy… Spoon cauliflower in the bottom of a bowl and cover with Thai Coconut Chicken.

Happy Guilt-Free Dinner

If I were to make this again I would...

Use less hot sauce. Kleenex was required.

Use a food processor for the cauliflower to reduce the epic mess!

Use less coconut milk to make it less saucy

Mix it up with some more veggies, like broccoli or maybe snow peas
