I love taking this recipe and using it in different ways as leftovers! Add raw + cooked veggies in it for a lunchtime salad, mix it with eggs the next morning for breakfast, use lettuce cups and some raw bell pepper for a sandwich wrap...the possibilities are endless! #repurposeleftovers

1

In a large skillet or wok, heat the oil, garlic, chiles, + shallots over high heat for 1-2 minutes until softened.

2

Add the ground chicken + stir to break up the minute. Cook for 2 minutes.

3

Add the honey, Bragg’s, + fish sauce. Stir continuously until meat is nearly cooked. Add in the basil and bok choy- cook until lightly wilted.

4

Serve with optional sesame seeds. If you’d like; toss it with 1/2 of a Lotus Foods instant rice bowl- I love the Forbidden black rice, Volcanic red rice, + Sprouted brown rice.
