    Our Favorite Thai Chicken has all of your favorite Thai flavors made right in your own kitchen. Served on a bed of rice, you will not be disappointed!

    Our Favorite Thai Chicken

    Sometime life gets so darn busy.  On a busy weeknight it is hard to argue the convenience of a quick take-out meal.  It is not hard to argue the lack of healthy choices out there.  When you get take-out you are never sure what ingredients have been used.  When I make this dish at home, I know exactly what the ingredients are!

    I have created a recipe based on one of our favorite take-out dishes.  Our Favorite Thai Chicken combines all of those Thai flavors that we love.

    This meal is a quick and easy recipe that is perfect for a busy weeknight.  It has ingredients that you probably have right in your pantry, and will be pleased to serve your family.

    Our Favorite Thai Chicken

    This meal is packed full of flavor.  You begin by cooking the chicken and those delicious vegetables in a combination of great Thai flavors.

    The real winner of the flavor award is the Thai chili sauce! This recipe allows you to customize your sauce to your liking.  I also love how the sauce thickens by using a mixture of cornstarch and  coconut milk.

    Serve this dish over a bed a rice and your family will thank you!
