From a Sunset Magazine special edition, "Sunset Weeknight." I haven't tried it yet, but it sounds like a yummy combination of flavors. Judging from the photo in the magazine, it appears to be somewhere between a soup and a stew in consistency.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon hot chili flakes
1/2 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
1 tablespoon grated fresh gingerroot
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth
2 cups lightly packed washed baby spinach leaves (about 4 ozs)
1 (14 ounce) can baby corn, drained
2 roma tomatoes, cored and chopped (about 1/2 lb total)
1/4 cup sliced canned water chestnut
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion (including some green tops)
1 tablespoon lime juice
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves (also called coriander leaves)

Steps:

  • Rinse chicken and pat dry. Cut into 1-inch chunks. Combine flour, salt, chilli flakes, and five spice in a ziplock baggy. Add chicken chunks and shake until coated.
  • Heat oil in a 4-5 quart pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and spice mixture, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry until chicken is cooked outside but still pink inside, about 3 minutes (cut to test).
  • Add coconut milk and broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat; cover and simmer about 5 minutes longer.
  • Add spinach leaves, corn, tomatoes, water chestnuts, green onions, and lime juice. Cook, stirring frequently, until spinach is limp, about 3 minutes.
  • Serve garnished with cilantro leaves.

I smoked the chicken for this stew, and it was incredible! The chicken was so tender and flavorful, and the smoke added a delicious depth of flavor to the stew.

I grilled the chicken for this stew instead of cooking it on the stovetop. It gave the chicken a nice smoky flavor, and it was a great way to change up the recipe.

I cooked the chicken in my air fryer instead of on the stovetop. It turned out crispy and juicy, and it was a healthier way to prepare the chicken.

This recipe is low-carb and keto-friendly. I used cauliflower rice instead of regular rice, and I omitted the potatoes. It was a delicious and satisfying meal that didn't spike my blood sugar.

I made a few modifications to this recipe to make it vegan, and it turned out amazing! I used tofu instead of chicken, and I added more vegetables to the stew. It was a hit with my family, even the meat-eaters.
