Ingredients:

  • 1 bunch cilantro, stems removed
  • 3 medium jalapĂ©nos seeded and roughly chopped
  • 1 2-inch fresh ginger peeled and sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
  • 800 ml unsweetened coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1.5 tsp salt
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 3 cups cooked rice

Instructions:

  1. Chop Spices Finely
    Reserve 2 tbsp of the cilantro leaves and place the rest of the cilantro, jalapeños, ginger in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped.
  2. Saute Spices with Onions and Peppers
    Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and cook the ginger mixture for 2 minutes or until fragrant and season with kosher salt. Add the onion and red bell pepper and cook until softened for about 5 minutes.
  3. Cook Chicken
    Add the coconut milk and soy sauce and bring to a simmer. Add the chicken and the remaining salt and simmer until cooked through, about 10 minutes, and so the sauce thickens.
