Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 ¼ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, diced
2 large carrots, diced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, diced
1 bunch scallions, sliced, white and green parts divided
3 large cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
½ cup peanut butter
¼ cup water, or more to taste
2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
1 medium lime, juiced
½ teaspoon salt
1 (14 ounce) can great northern beans, drained
8 leaves basil, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook in batches, if necessary, until nicely browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • At the same time, heat a small amount of water to boiling in a small saucepan. Add carrots and boil until just starting to get tender, about 2 minutes. Drain.
  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat; stir in onion, white parts of scallions, garlic, and ginger. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine coconut milk, peanut butter, 1/4 cup water, Sriracha, lime juice, and salt in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring often, until peanut butter is melted and mixture is smooth.
  • Add cooked chicken, carrots, and peanut sauce to the onion mixture. Stir in beans, scallion greens, and basil until well mixed.
  • Simmer over low heat, stirring often, until well blended and heated through, 30 to 40 minutes. The sauce should be a little thin as it cooks; if not, add water until desired consistency.
