Ingredients
  

  • 4 Boneless Chicken Thighs or Breasts or a Whole Rotisserie Chicken
  • 4 cups Veggies: broccoli, carrots, peppers cut into bite size pieces
  • 1 green onion chopped
  • Rice, Cauliflower Rice, Soba Noodles, or Quinoa prepared according to package
  • Peanut Sauce Recipe Below
  • Sriracha optional

Seasoning for Grilled Chicken

  • 2 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp Ground Ginger
  • 2 tsp Coriander
  • 2 tsp Turmeric
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Chipotle Pepper
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper

Peanut Sauce

  • 1/2 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 1/4 cup Soy Sauce, low sodium or Liquid Aminos
  • 1 tbs Rice Vinegar
  • 1/2 Lime juiced
  • 2 tbs Honey
  • Sriracha, Garlic Chili Paste, Cayenne Pepper to taste (optional)

Instructions
 

  • (If using rotisserie chicken, skip this step). Preheat grill. In a small bowl whisk together all ingredients for chicken seasoning. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle seasoning on both sides of chicken. Once grill is heated place chicken on grill. Grill, turning once, for 10-15 minutes or until the internal temperature is 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Take off grill and let chicken rest for 10 minutes.
  • While chicken is grilling, cook veggies. Steam veggies by filling a pot fit with steam basket with 2 inches of water. Turn the stove top to medium-high heat, creating steam. Place veggies in steam basket until al dente, 5-10 minutes. Or steam in the microwave, or roast veggies in oven.
  • Make the peanut sauce. Whisk all peanut sauce ingredients together until smooth.
  • Serve with rice, cauliflower rice, soba noodles, or quinoa. Place on plate with chicken and veggies. Drizzle with peanut sauce. Top with green onion and additional sriracha, if desired. Enjoy!
