INGREDIENTS:
🔹1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
🔹Coconut aminos
🔹1 can (or two mini cups) of mandarin oranges in JUICE-drained)
🔹1 small purple cabbage
🔹1 small green cabbage
🔹1 bunch of green onions, chopped
🔹2oz raw cashews
🔹1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
🔹Salt + pepper
🔹Sesame seeds
Dressing Ingredients:
🔹1/4 cup (64g) unsweetened sunbutter
🔹3T Coconut aminos
🔹1T Sesame oil
🔹2 tsp crushed ginger (I use frozen cubes)
🔹2T Apple cider vinegar
🔹1T water
🔹1 large clove garlic (or two small)
🔹3T Allulose syrup (from Kroger-the maple works fine here!) You can also sub honey or maple syrup but this will change the nutrition of the recipe and add a decent amount of sugar.
Directions:
🔹Marinate the chicken thighs in some coconut aminos for anywhere from 3-24 hrs
🔹Shred the cabbage in a food processor with the thinnest blade possible or slice thinly by hand. You should have 1.5-2lbs of shredded cabbage.
🔹Crush up the cashews then toast in a skillet on medium heat until golden brown. Set aside.
🔹Throw all of the dressing ingredients into a mini blender and blend.
🔹About an hour before you want to eat add the cabbage to a large bowl or tupperware with lid and add half of dressing to the top. Put the lid on and shake to distribute dressing. Open the lid and taste a bite and adjust seasonings as needed (add S+P if you want). Place in fridge.
🔹Grill the chicken thighs or cook in a skillet or oven until cooked through. Allow to cool and slice.
🔹Take slaw and transfer it to big salad bowl.
🔹Place the chopped chicken on top.
🔹Add the mandarin oranges, cashews, green onions, and cilantro to the top.
🔹Drizzle with remaining dressing, taste and add salt if needed.
🔹Sprinkle additional sesame seeds to the top.
🔹Serve and enjoy!
