Chicken Tenders in a Peanut Miso Sauce

Chicken Tenders in a Peanut Miso Sauce

I first tried this original recipe (listed at bottom and made with spaghetti squash, broccoli, and chick peas) and loved this sauce. I think you can use it in a combination of ingredients. I wanted to use this protein and vegetable to make it basically a carb-free dish, and full of protein.  It really is delicious and versatile. 

In addition to the Peanut-Miso Sauce below, ingredients include chicken tenders, oil to cook in the pan, and broccoli/slaw mix.

Directions:
Sear chicken tenders in a pan until just cooked through.  Follow directions on package of broccoli to steam in the microwave.  Top chicken and broccoli with peanut-miso sauce
