Ingredients
- 1 lb Chicken Breast
- 3 cups Cabbage, shredded fine
- 1 cup Carrot, julienned
- 3 tbsp peanut butter
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- Juice and zest of 1 lime
- 1 tsp honey or sugar
- 1 tsp sriracha (or more, obviously)
- Cilantro and mint, torn
- 2 tbsp crushed peanuts
Method
- Whisk the dressing: peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice and zest, honey, sriracha, and warm water a tablespoon at a time until it pours like heavy cream.
- Season and cook the Chicken Breast in a hot, lightly oiled skillet until golden and cooked through, then rest 5 minutes and slice against the grain.
- Toss the Cabbage and Carrot with half the dressing — really work it in with your hands so every shred is coated.
- Pile the dressed vegetables onto plates, lay the sliced Chicken Breast over, and drizzle with the remaining dressing.
- Finish with the herbs and crushed peanuts. The first bite should crunch audibly; if it doesn't, add more peanuts.
