Recipe: Chicken with Peanut Sauce and Brown Rice

With flavors of curry, soy sauce and peanut butter, this recipe has an Eastern flare.  This meal also has a lot of flexibility by using the brown rice to increase or decrease the carbohydrates in this meal.  This way, it can fit the macronutrient profiles of the P90X Phase 2: Energy Booster/INSANITY Elite Nutrition (40/40/20) OR the P90X Phase 1: Fat Shredder (50/30/20) plans.  (Right after this picture was taken, I cut up the chicken and mixed it with the rice…DELICIOUS!) 

  • sliced boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • crushed garlic clove (or minced garlic)
  • grapeseed oil
  • 1/4 cup organic crunchy peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp organic raw blue agave sweetener
  • 1 tsp hot madras curry powder
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp Kikkoman Low Sodium Soy Sauce 
  • 1 package of Birds Eye SteamFresh Whole Grain Brown Rice

Spray a saute pan with grapeseed oil and place over medium high heat.  Add crushed garlic, cook and stir for about 3 minutes.  Add the skinless, boneless chicken breast and brown chicken.  Combine the peanut butter, raw blue agave sweetener, curry powder, lime juice and soy sauce in a small bowl.  Mix until smooth.  Microwave the package of brown rice (usually about 4 minutes).  Serve chicken and rice on the plate.  Add 1 tablespoon of peanut sauce on top of the chicken.  1.5 lbs of chicken makes about 5 servings. 

Preparation Time: 20 minutes
