Weeknight Thai Coconut Chicken

with Veggies & Garlic Rice

When you combine succulent chicken thigh and colourful veggies with a ginger and lemongrass-laced coconut sauce, the result is a fragrant Thai-style creation you'll want to make on repeat.

We’ve replaced the green beans in this recipe with baby broccoli due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!
