Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup all-natural peanut butter
  • 1 medium lime, freshly squeezed 
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or light corn syrup*
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce or hot sauce (adjust to taste)*
  • 1/4 cup low-FODMAP chicken broth*
  • 1/3 cup full-fat, canned coconut milk or coconut cream*
  • 1 tablespoon yellow curry powder (adjust to taste)* 
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce, or GF soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon garlic-infused oil*
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs (see note) cut into 1 inch chunks*
  • 23 carrots (100g), cut into matchstick slices
  • 1 and 1/2 cups (200g) broccoli heads*
  • 1 red bell pepper (100g), sliced*
  • 2 scallions, green tips only, chopped*
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Garnish: 1/4 cup crushed roasted peanuts, green scallion tips

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix the peanut butter, lime juice, maple syrup or corn syrup, Sriracha or hot sauce, coconut milk, LF chicken broth, and curry powder until combined well (you can also blitz in a mini processor).  Stir in the soy sauce, and adjust seasoning to your heat preference.
  • Heat a large wok or skillet over medium, then add the infused oil and the chicken
  • Stir-fry for roughly 3-4 minutes, until the chicken begins to brown
  • Add the carrots, broccoli, and red bell pepper, and stir fry for another few minutes until they begin to soften, covering if needed
  • Add the sauce, and keep stirring until it simmers
  • Stir in the scallion tips
  • Taste, and adjust seasoning as desired, add salt and pepper
  • Once chicken and veggies are cooked through, serve over rice or noodles with crushed peanuts and scallion tips

Notes

  • Although this recipe has not been lab-tested, a single serving should be low-FODMAP based on the ingredients (using available FODMAP data at time of blog posting) 
  • This recipe works best with boneless chicken thighs, but if you only like breasts, be aware they will cook quicker, and you may need to adjust the time for that aspect of the recipe
  • Ensure no added garlic or onion in your curry powder
  • There are minimal FODMAPs in maple syrup or corn syrup, avoid high fructose corn syrup
  • If you don’t like spicy food then titrate the curry and hot sauce to your preference
