Paleo Chicken Pad Thai

We love going to our local chain grocer "Sprouts". They have a monthly magazine with 4 recipes that I enjoy trying. This one was very fun and easy. It was paleo for me, but the boys insisted on having rice (or noodles) to go with it. :) Cooking the chicken in the coconut oil was so delicious! I opted to sprinkle on the chopped cashews, cilantro and sriracha-so good. :)


1 1/2 lb chicken cut into 1" chunks
4-5 Tbsp coconut oil
5 cloves garlic chopped
3 Tbsp fish sauce
1 Tbsp aminos (soy sauce)
4 Tbsp lime juice
1/2 Tbsp apple-cider vinegar
5 Tbsp cilantro
4-5 green onions
1 12 oz pkg broccoli slaw
2 medium carrots julienned
2 Tbsp chopped cashews
Sriracha to taste

1. Heat a wok over medium-high heat. Add oil and garlic, cook for about 1 minute.
2. Add chicken and cook 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently until lightly browned.
3. Add fish sauce, aminos, lime juice and vinegar. Cook at a rapid simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 5-8 minutes.
4. Add broccoli slaw and julienned carrot. Cook, stirring frequently, until soft but still firm, about 3-4 minutes.
5. Toss or garnish with green onion, cilantro, cashews and sriracha.
