Thai Food. Love of my life (sorry husband). I enjoy Thai food so much that I had it at my wedding. Finding healthier alternatives that still embody the salty, sweet, acidic, spicy delicousness of Thai cuisine has been a challenge. But I accept the challenge. Because I need it.

Instructions
Step 1
For the baby bok choy: Remove the base of the stem and wash the leaves. Saute them over medium/high heat with just a touch of oil, 1 clove of minced garlic, and a pinch of salt. It should only take a few minutes to soften.
Step 2
For the cauliflower fried rice: Follow instructions on the bag that you buy. I get mine at Costco. It only takes 10-15 minutes to heat up.
Step 3
For the chicken:Whisk chicken broth, oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, and Swerve sugar substitute, together in a bowl until well blended. Heat a large skillet over high heat and add your oil. Cook your chicken breast until all of the pink is gone - about 3 minutes. Add in shallots, garlic, and chiles and continue to cook on high heat for another 2-3 minutes. You want the liquid to begin to get caramelized. Put 1 TB of the prepared broth mixture in and let it cook down for a minute. Add in the rest of the liquid and let it cook another minute or two so that the chicken gets nicely coated. Then finally, add the dark soy sauce and the fresh basil leaves and stir it up until the leaves are almost wilted.
