Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound  Organic Ground Chicken
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper
  • 6 oz Snow Peas
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Aminos
  • 2 inches Fresh Ginger grated
  • 2 stalks  Green Onions
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
  • sprinkle Sesame Seeds
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

Make the rice

  • First, make the brown jasmine rice according to the package instructions.

Cook the chicken

  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground chicken, season with salt, and cook until it is browned.
  • Slice the bell pepper into thin strips. Peel the ginger using the back of a spoon and grate it with a microplane or zester. Thinly slice the green onions. Rinse the snow peas.
  • Once the chicken has cooked through, add the sesame oil, bell pepper, and snow peas and cook for 5-7 minutes until just tender.

Make the sauce

  • Add the grated ginger, green onions, and coconut aminos.
  • Cook for 2 more minutes until the ginger is fragrant and everything is well coated in the sauce.
  • Once done, serve on a bed of brown rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Notes

Note: I like to make a double batch of brown rice at a time. I'll let it cool all the way and then freeze the rest in freezer-safe dishes (like these) that can go straight from the freezer to the microwave or oven. Always having cooked brown rice on hand is a game-changer.
