Iris’s Tip
Iris's Asian peanut chicken is great if made with chicken breast too. Serve over rice or noodles

2 tbsp of sesame oil
2 tbsp of oil
1 cup of coconut milk

2 tablespoons of rice vinegar
2 tablespoons of lime juice

Season with salt, crushed black pepper, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper
Ingredients for garnish:
1/2 cup of roasted peanuts
3 chopped green onion stalks
3 sliced mini red peppers
1/4 cup of chopped cilantro
Directions
1. In a bowl mix all of the sauce ingredients and add the chicken. Mix so the chicken is coated with the sauce, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for an hour.
