Did you know? - WikiMD has over 50,000 keto friendly recipes with a color coded ketometer rating scale!
- pour grapeseed oil over a large pan.
- put in chopped chicken and cook over medium high for a few minutes.
- then add in 1/2 can of chicken broth.
- add pink himalayan salt, paprika, white pepper, red chili pepper flakes, black pepper, and any other spices you like.
- add in fresh garlic.
- add a tablespoon of peanut butter to the pan while the chicken broth is still there and stir the peanut butter until it becomes part of the sauce and no longer chunky.
- the chicken broth will soak flavor into the food and also some of it will evaporate, don't worry if it looks like a soup at first.
- cook the peas and riced cauliflower in separate pans. steam them or whatever you like. I usually just add a little bit of water and butter to a pan and let the vegetables defrost that way.
- when the vegetables are done cooking, add them to the big pan with the chicken.
- add a little soy sauce and horseradish to the pan if desired.
- stir everything up and let the chicken broth continue to evaporate (if it's still there)
- continue stirring until your gut feeling tells you IT'S READY.
- boom. kung pao chicken from trader joes with added ingredients is ready
