I had to go back for more garlic spears today.  To try something completely different, I got a boneless chicken breast, cut it up, and sauteed in coconut oil, then added the last of the lovely carrots, and cooked until just heated, then added the cut up garlic spears. 

Once those were just about done, I threw in some Thai “chili and sweet basil” sauce, which is mostly chili, basil, salt, and some soy beans.  Next went some bean thread noodles softened in boiling water.  Just before serving, I threw in a dash of soy sauce, and some chopped fresh mango.

Once it was off the stove and in a bowl, I added some very thinly sliced, raw red onion, and some pickled turnip.  I had some Chinese style “wulin vegetables” but Thai pickled veggies would be good too.

The result was light, not too spicy, and well rounded.  I just couldn’t resist the urge to take advantage of the garlic spears before they disappear.
