This looks great can’t wait to try! Could it work with beef instead? Would you change anything?
Such great flavor!! Definitely saving this for future meal planning! Also great macros for a great sized serving.
My life is better because of this recipe. Heck, this whole website. Thank you for making macros delicious!!!
Danielle, on the chicken is it 1 pound raw or 1 pound cooked? Thank you
Raw!
So easy. Balanced, filling, yummy and saves well. 💜
The Coconut Aminos link goes to their garlic sauce. Is this right or should it be the regular Coconut Aminos? (https://www.amazon.com/Coconut-Secret-Original-Soy-Free-Seasoning/dp/B00LWQLCJ4/)
I am using regular coconut aminos.
Sooooo good! I made it with ground chicken and leftover quinoa. Delicious. Will make again. Thank you so much!
Hi Danielle!
Your recipe says 1 T coc aminos but in the directions it looks like you use a total of 4? Just thought you would want to update. Making this week 🙂
Thank you!!
Could I do this with frozen shrimp and it be equally as delish? Trying to find a good pescatarian dish to make for my family.
Yes! I have subbed with frozen shrimp and it’s amazing! Macros with change.
