Default Ginger & Garlic Chicken with Pak Choi

This is so quick, easy and delicious:


Ginger & Garlic Chicken with Pak Choi

Fresh ginger
Garlic clove
Chicken breast, cut into strips
Pak choi (Bok choy), roughly chopped
Olive oil

Crush the fresh ginger and garlic, and then add to some olive oil in a wok (or frying pan), and when the oil is hot enough add the chicken. When the chicken is just turning golden, throw in the chopped pak choi, stirring until it is slightly wilted. Serve immediately.



This recipe serves one, but it is easy to make for more people - just add another chicken breast and pak choi per person. You can also add more ginger and garlic - entirely your choice.

I'm so glad they made this a sticky! But the nut bread has granulated sugar in it. Is this South beach friendly? (It also calls for all purpose flour.)

IMHO, I always make my own decisions about whether something is SBD friendly. Many think that things are when they are not. I suggest that we use these recipes and make sure that we use ingredients that will make them SBD friendly...all purpose flour is a as is granulated sugar!!...but we can make our substitutes!!

Thanks for pointing it out!!

Default Coconut Shrimp Curry

This recipe was featured in today's SB Online Newsletter, and it's one that I definitely want to try!



Coconut Shrimp Curry

Phase 2

Serves 2

When making a curry, toast or warm the curry paste in liquid first, before adding other ingredients, to bring out the fragrant, complicated flavors. Opt for red curry paste as opposed to green, which is spicier, and make sure you use unsweetened coconut milk; not the thick, sweetened kind. We like to serve this over brown rice, but watch the curry — it cooks quickly and it will be done before the rice is finished cooking.

Tip: Since there's no oil in the pot, you must keep stirring the peppers and onions as they cook.


1 cup unsweetened light coconut milk, divided
1 teaspoon red Thai curry paste
1/2 large red pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 small onion, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons Splenda® or sugar substitute
1 teaspoon fish sauce
10-12 oz extra-large shrimp
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Sliced fresh basil leaves and fresh lime wedges for garnish


1. In medium saucepan over medium heat, bring 1/4 cup of the coconut milk and the curry paste to simmer. Add peppers and onions; cook 4 minutes, stirring often. Stir in remaining 3/4 cup coconut milk, Splenda®, and fish sauce. Bring to a simmer; let cook 1 minute.

2. Add shrimp; cook 3 minutes, until shrimp is cooked through, stirring once to flip shrimp. Remove from heat; stir in lime juice. Serve over rice, garnish with basil and additional lime.
