Chicken & Lemongrass

Chicken with Lemongrass

Cooking Time - 15-20 mins 

Ingredients (single meal)
•1 lemongrass per person
•Chilli (depends on how spicy you want it. I used a full mild chilli)
•Coconut Oil
•1/2 an onion per person
•1/2 an inch of ginger1 chicken breast per person (diced)
•1 tablespoon per person of Honey/Palm sugar or because I have hypoglycaemia I used XyloBrit (natural sweetener)
•1 tablespoon per person of fish sauce
•1 serving of rice. Brown preferably but it doesn't taste nice so the next best in terms of a low GI diet would be basmati rice.
•Squeeze of lemon 
•Optional Veg

•Put on rice and cook as instructed. (12mins ish)

•Put chilli, onion, ginger and lemongrass into a food processor, along with a tiny bit of water to make a paste.

•Put coconut oil into the wok. Once smoking put in the paste for 3-4 mins and reduce heat. 

•Put in chicken, fish sauce, honey (or whatever sweetener you like)  into wok for about 4 minutes and add in lemon juice.

•If it looks very dry then add in a small amount of water. 

•For Veg I put mange tout and chopped peppers and put them in last minute just to heat up.
