👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Heat coconut oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.

3. Add the light coconut milk gradually while stirring, creating a smooth curry base. Bring to a gentle simmer.

4. Add the chicken pieces and stir well to coat with the curry sauce. Simmer for 8-10 minutes until chicken is partially cooked.

5. Add bell peppers, broccoli, and snap peas. Stir and continue simmering for 6-8 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp and chicken is fully cooked through.

6. Season with fish sauce and lime juice. Taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper as needed.

7. Remove from heat and stir in fresh basil leaves until just wilted. Top with sliced green Thai chilies if desired.

8. Serve immediately over cauliflower rice or brown rice for a complete Fat Switch meal.
