Kung-WOW Chicken

By sarahbettine

Don’t let the list of ingredients scare you. Most of them are staple items that you should have on hand, so you don't have to make any special trips to the grocery store. And the cool thing, there is no use of premade bottled sauces. This is from scratch! (Plus MSG-free).

Ingredients

2 tablespoons coconut oil
2 lbs organic chicken – cut into 1 cubes
1 organic red pepper (peppers are notoriously pesticide laden-go organic), chopped
1-2 teaspoons chili paste (check ingredients). Spice it up to your liking.
5 large mushrooms (optional- I chop them into a fine dice to get them past my kids)
1 small can water chestnuts, cut in fourths
Fresh ginger, grated w/ a microplane (about 1 of a piece of ginger that has been peeled) NOTE: keep your hunk of ginger in the freezer in a ziploc bag. It is easy to peel and grate and it will last almost forever!
2-3 cloves garlic, put through a garlic press or finely diced
1/2 – 1 cup organic chicken broth
1/2 cup tamari
1 tsp sesame oil
1/4 cup organic peanut butter
