Here’s a tip for you, if you have a Trader Joe’s near you I buy the boneless, skinless, frozen chicken breasts because they are thinner. I also ALWAYS have in my freezer their frozen crushed garlic cubes. They come 20 in a pack and saves time from using real garlic. If you don’t have a Trader Joe’s near you, any boneless chicken will do, just don’t buy it thick, and use fresh garlic if you prefer.

Thai Cilantro Chicken

4-6 boneless chicken breasts
3 garlic cloves, peeled
4 dashes of GREEN Tabasco sauce
1 bunch cilantro leaves washed and cut up
1 finely grated rind of a lime
3 Tbsp limejuice
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp white sugar
1 cup coconut milk

Cut three slashes in the top side of the chicken breasts
Put all the ingredients minus the chicken in a blender or food processor until a smooth puree forms
Poor over chicken coating both sides and marinate in your fridge for an hour
Place chicken on a cookie sheet, drain off excess marinade, some will remain, so don’t worry
Broil under preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, turning ½ way through
Meanwhile place remaining marinade in a saucepan and bring to a boil, then simmer for several minutes. Pour sauce over chicken and serve with white rice or pasta.

Salad: (I will post again separately as it is really good)
Spring mix lettuce (purchased in a bag)
Toasted slivered almonds
Red onion
Crumbled gorgonzola cheese
Sliced pear (I buy it in a can)
Brianna’s blush wine vinaigrette salad dressing

Total prep time, around 10-15 minutes
