Healthy chicken satay stir-fry










Using light coconut milk means this chicken satay stir-fry is still creamy but is way better for you with half the fat! We’ve also added pumpkin, carrots, capsicum and broccolini for extra veg. Broccoli ni is a great antioxidant and is high in vitamin C, potassium, dietary fibre and vitamin E. Gently cook broccoli by steaming or stir-frying to enjoy the great flavour and keep in the goodness of this vegetable.






INGREDIENTS


60ml (1/4 cup) light coconut milk


2 tablespoons crunchy peanut butter


2 teaspoons kecap manis (sweet soy sauce)


2 teaspoons light olive oil


400g chicken tenderloins


2 garlic cloves, finely chopped


2 teaspoons finely chopped ginger


450g peeled, deseeded pumpkin, cut into thin, 4cm pieces


1 bunch broccolini, halved lengthways

  1. 2 Carrots

Fresh long red chilli, sliced (optional), to serve


Fresh coriander sprigs, to serve

Lime halves, to serve
