Since starting the Low Fodmap diet, I often crave curries, stir-fries, and Asian food in general and this Low Fodmap Dandan Chicken has made it into my fortnightly rotation. It is so good that I could actually eat it every week!
It is obviously a recipe that has been adapted to make it Low Fodmap, so do not expect a “traditional Dandan” dish. However, the sesame and peanut butter flavours are there and this stir-fry tastes delicious.
Another great thing about this dish is that, like all stir-fries, it’s very quick and easy to make, so you can have dinner ready in less than 30 minutes – rice included!
I have listed the ingredients for 1 serving only, as I often make it for myself alone, so keep that in mind if you are making it for the whole family.
If you are not following the Low Fodmap diet, no need to worry too much about serving sizes (especially where the vegetables are concerned). Also, you can use regular stock and regular oil and 1 clove of sliced garlic instead of the garlic infused olive oil.
