Ingredients
  • For the stir fry:
  • 1 Large Organic Chicken Breast, cut into 1 inch cubes
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • ½ Cup of Organic Chicken Broth, no salt added
  • 2 TBSPNs Coconut Amino Acids
  • 1 ½ tspns Dried Ginger
  • Juice from 1 Juicy Lemon (about 3 TBSPNs)
  • Ghee
  • 1 Bunch Asparagus, ends trimmed, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 6 Cloves Garlic, roughly chopped
  • For the “rice”:
  • 1 Large Rutabaga, peeled and quartered
Directions
  1. After cutting up the chicken, sprinkle with salt and pepper to season.
  2. In a small bowl combine the chicken broth, coconut aminos, ginger, lemon juice, and a couple dashes of salt.
  3. In a skillet, start to warm about a TBSPN of ghee and add the asparagus, cooking until just tender (a few minutes). Then add the garlic until it just starts to brown. Remove asparagus and garlic from the pan and set aside.
  4. Add a touch more ghee and toss chicken in the pan on high heat to brown the chicken. While it cooks, take the quartered rutabaga and run it through the food processor until it has a rice-like consistency.
  5. When the chicken is cooked, remove from pan and set aside. Now add the “riced” rutabaga to the pan and brown it. Again, remove from pan and set aside.
  6. Now put the “coconut amino marinade” that you made earlier into the hot pan and warm until it starts to bubble. Let simmer for a few minutes and then add the chicken, asparagus and garlic back into the sauce. Let sit in the pan for a few minutes off the heat for the flavors to marry. (Note: it tastes better the longer it sits).
  7. When you are ready to serve it, place a small mound of the “rutabaga rice” on the plate and top with the chicken, asparagus and sauce. The rice will start to absorb the sauce and it tastes better the longer it sits in the sauce (I know from experience ;)). If you can manage to wait for it to absorb, it’s worth it.
