Tasty Chicken Stir Fry with a spicy peanut sauce and brown rice! You can make this as spicy, or mild as you like and it beats takeout any day!
Do you have a bucket list of places in the world you'd love to visit? I'm sure you do, and for me, Thailand is in my top 10. The culture and geography are perfectly legit reasons to fly there right now, but what about the food? If I'm going to Thailand it's for sure going to be for the food. But because I can't just jump on a plane whenever I feel like mowing down on a red or green curry, I have to make do with the wide choice of Thai restaurants in my area. Or I could just make my own which would be less expensive and I don't have to drive to pick it up! So that's what I ended up doing!
This easy chicken stir fry has some of my favorite Asian style flavors in it, sesame oil, soy sauce and rice vinegar. Adding the peanut butter makes it similar to a satay style taste but this peanut flavor is a lot milder. It does have a little heat from some squirts of Sriracha and red chillies, but you can dial the spice level down by cutting back on these things. I'm a total spice-head so it was the whole chili for me! This Thai Style Red Chicken Curry and my Sweet and Sour Chicken are more evidence of my love for these spicy flavors. Serve your spicy chicken stir fry over some brown rice and garnish with tons of extra cilantro, green onions and chopped peanuts for that crunch.
