Notes
I love playing around with this recipe:
Switch up the veggies like carrots or snap peas for extra color and crunch.
If you like it spicy, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the chicken marinade.
For a thicker sauce, mix in a teaspoon of cornstarch with coconut milk before adding it to the pan.
These little changes can make a big difference. Enjoy making it your own! 😋
