Peanut Sauce Chicken

Behold one of our favorite dishes. This comes from the repertoire of Brian's family.

2 chicken breasts, skinned, boned & cut

Sauce:
1/2 c. peanut butter
1/2 c. water
2 T. soy sauce
1 T. brown sugar

1. Put sauce ingredients in a microwave safe bowl and warm it (about 30 seconds-1 minute or so in the microwave) until it's starting to dissolve. Stir to combine.

2. Heat 2 T. peanut or veg oil
3. Add 2-3 cloves minced garlic, 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper
4. Add chicken. Stir fry 5 minutes and add a green vegetable (3-4 c.) [we always make it with green beans. It rocks.] and cook for about 3 minutes. Add sauce and cook for 3 minutes.
Serve over rice.

I like it when the green beans are cooked so they still have some crunch on them. This is one of those dishes where you want seconds even though you're full because it tastes so good.
