Ingredients
  

  • 3 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 large eggplant cut into cubes
  • 4 tbsp soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • 2 tbsp sriracha
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup or raw honey
  • 2 cups chicken breast diced into cubes
  • 2 large garlic cloves minced

Instructions
 

  • Melt the coconut oil over medium high heat.
  • Add all other ingredients except the garlic.
  • Let it simmer for about 10 minutes. The eggplant will absorb the sauce and they will turn into flavor bombs.
  • Once the eggplant is soft and has absorbed all the liquid, add the garlic and give it a toss.
  • Serve over rice or cauliflower rice.

Serve over rice or cauliflower rice.
