Ingredients
Scale
1 lb of boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 can (13.5 oz) of coconut milk
1/3 cup of maple syrup
1 cup of jasmine rice
2 cloves of minced garlic
1 inch of grated ginger
2 stalks of chopped green onions
2 tbsp of soy sauce
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Instructions
Start by gathering all your ingredients. Ensure the chicken is cut into bite-sized pieces for quick cooking. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger to release their aromatic oils.
In a bowl, combine chicken pieces, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and maple syrup. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add a splash of oil and sauté the marinated chicken until golden brown, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Once the chicken is browned, pour in the coconut milk and stir well. Allow it to simmer for an additional 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
Once both the rice and chicken are cooked, fold the rice into the skillet with the chicken and coconut sauce. Add chopped green onions for an extra hint of freshness.
Serve in bowls and garnish with additional green onions and a drizzle of maple syrup.
Notes
