A Taste of Thai

Dave loves Thai food.  Today we had a yummy Thai dish.  And it was so easy that it could have been in my favorite cook book, "The I Hate to Cook Book."  But it wasn't, because this Thai Sauce Mix hadn't been invented when this book came out.

So here's how you put it together.  Allow yourself about 15 minutes.  But you do have to start a few days or weeks ahead by buying a rotisserie chicken.  Eat what you want of it, then, while somebody else does the dishes, pick all of the rest of the chicken from the bone and store in the freezer.

The morning you want to make the Thai dish, take it out of the freezer.

Pour a can of lite coconut milk into a sauce pan.  Add the chicken.  Bring to a slow boil.  Add the contents of the Thai Peanut Mix.  Stir.  Add veggies if you like.  I added frozen peas.  Serve over rice or noodles.  Top with roasted, salted peanuts.

Enjoy.
