Peanut Sauce

In 3 Tbs coconut oil (or other oil) sauté:

• 2 jalapenos-seeded and minced (less if you like less heat)
• 4-5 cloves garlic-minced
• 1 onion-finely diced

After 3-4 minutes add:

• 1 can coconut milk, unsweetened  (about 1.5 cups)
• ½ cup peanut butter, creamy is best
• 2-3 Tbs freshly grated ginger
• 1 Tb honey
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• Juice from 1 lime
• optional, 2 Tb sesame seed oil

For a creamy sauce with no texture run the immersion blender through the peanut sauce for a minute.

Simmer on low for 5 minutes.  Don’t allow it to boil.

Cool sauce.

Serve over noodles and steamed veggies….peas, broccoli, etc. or as a dip with chicken.
