Note: You will need to prepare 3/4 cup brown rice for this meal. This can be done ahead of time.

Prep and Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup onion, sliced
• 1 clove garlic, chopped
• 3 TBS chicken or vegetable broth
• 3 oz chicken breast, sliced thinly
• 1/2 cup crimini mushrooms, sliced
• 1 tsp Thai red curry paste (Thai Kitchen recommended) or to taste
• 1-1/2 cups broccoli, chopped
• half of a 15oz can light coconut milk (about 1 cup)
• salt to taste

• Serve with 3/4 cup brown rice

Directions:

1. Chop onions and garlic and let sit 5-10 minutes.
2. Cut chicken into 1" cubes and slice mushrooms.
3. Separate broccoli florets with small stems from the large, thick stem. Slice smaller stems into ¼ inch pieces. Slice florets into 4-6 pieces. (You can also do this step in the food processor, using the s-blade).
4. Heat broth in a stainless steel skillet over medium heat, covered.
5. Add onions and mushrooms and sauté, covered, for 3 minutes.
6. Add garlic, chicken, mushrooms and curry paste. Sauté 2 minutes.

8. Season to taste with salt and lime. Add fresh herbs and serve over rice.

Note: If you wish to use the large broccoli stem, cut off the bottom 1 inch of the stem. Peel the tough skin off the stem. Chop stem into 1/8 inch pieces.
