Ground Turkey Tikka Masala

rebeccahoopLeave a comment

I threw this together really quick because our planned dinner did not cook all the way while we went for an evening ride. This recipe took less than 15 minutes to make.

I served it with roasted potatoes and fresh spinach. Rice and veggies would be a nice accompaniment as well.

This would be a great meal prep option.

Thai Peanut Sauce

rebeccahoop

My version of Thai Peanut Sauce. I like to serve this with chicken and vegetables. Rice of choice or cauliflower rice is also recommended.

1 T fresh ginger, minced

4 cloves of garlic, minced

1 T olive oil

1 can coconut milk

1 lime, juiced

2 t coriander

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

2 T soy sauce

Sauté ginger and garlic in olive oil until they start to brown lightly.

Add lime juice and coconut milk, stir to remove garlic and ginger from the pan.

Add coriander, peanut butter, and soy sauce. Stir to combine.

Bring to a simmer. Adjust flavors as desired.

Stir in chicken and vegetables that have been cooked already. Reheat in the sauce if necessary.

Serve over rice.

This is a great way to use leftover chicken and vegetables that have been grilled or roasted.
