Ingredients

For the Chicken

  • 2 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts 1 pound total
  • 1 Tablespoon (16g) Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • ½ teaspoon Black Pepper

For the Broth

  • 2 Tablespoons (42g) Honey
  • 1 Tablespoon (18g) Yellow Curry Paste
  • 1 Tablespoon (21g) White Miso Paste
  • ¼ cup (60g) Powdered Peanut Butter or peanut butter
  • 2 Tablespoons (30g) Coconut Aminos or low-sodium soy sauce
  • 15 oz can Light Coconut Milk
  • 2 cups Chicken Bone Broth

For Serving

  • 4 cups Steamed Jasmine Rice I used 2 bags of Grain Trust frozen rice
  • Toasted Sesame Seeds
  • Lime Wedges
  • 2 Mini Persian Cucumbers thinly sliced
  • 2-3 Scallions thinly sliced
  • 1-2 handfuls Cilantro, Microgreens, or Your Choice of Greens roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Prepare the chicken. Coat the chicken breasts in the olive oil then season on all sides with the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Air fry for 15-18 minutes at 375ºF until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165ºF. Rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Prepare the broth. Add the curry paste, miso, honey, powdered peanut butter, coconut aminos, and 1/2 cup broth to a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk everything together until smooth before adding the coconut milk and remaining broth. Bring to a simmer before reducing the heat to low until the chicken is cooked and rested. 
  • Serve. Add rice to bowls and top with sliced chicken before spooning over the broth. Garnish with the toasted sesame seeds, sliced cucumbers, and other greens.
