Peanutty-Satay Style Chicken with lime and cilantro white rice

Ingredients:

For the chicken:

• 3 tablespoons peanut butter
• 1/3 cup soy sauce
• ½ cup canned coconut milk
• 3 tablespoons unsweetened rice vinegar
• 3 tablespoons sesame oil
• 3 teaspoons garlic powder
• 3 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1 ½ teaspoons  ground white pepper
• 2 pounds chicken breasts, sliced into strips

For the lime-cilantro rice

• 2 cups long grain white rice
• ½ cup lime juice
• 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

Prep Ahead:

1. Combine the satay ingredients and the chicken in a large resealable bag or container and toss to coat. 
2. Prepare the rice as directed and stir in the cilantro. Transfer to and store in a resealable bag or container.

Prepare From Prepped:

1. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable or canola oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until shimmering. 
2. Add the chicken to the pan, side by side, and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on each side and cooked through. You may have to work in batches. 
3. Heat the lime cilantro rice and serve alongside the cooked chicken.

Make From Fresh:

1. Combine the chicken satay ingredients in a large bag or bowl and toss to coat. Set aside to marinate while you prepare the rice. 
2. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then transfer the rinsed rice to a pot with a tight fitting lid. 
3. Add 4 cups of water and the lime juice to the pot, then bring to a boil, covered. 
4. Remove the lid and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until all the liquid has cooked off and the rice is cooked through. 
5. Stir in the chopped cilantro. 
6. While the rice is cooking, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable or canola oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until shimmering. 
7. Add the chicken to the pan, side by side, and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on each side and cooked through. You may have to work in batches. 
8. Serve the chicken with the rice on the side.
