    Black-Eyed Peas with Thai Spices and Chicken

    Thai Spiced Black-Eyed Peas

    Black-Eyed Peas With Thai Spices

     

    If you are like me you love comforting rituals of your past.  One of the rituals I enjoyed growing up was a piping hot pot full of black-eyed peas and bacon.  The trouble is that I am more aware of my health issues than ever now that I am 42.  My blood pressure goes high with just one cup of coffee now and there are more and more things that need checking at yearly physicals.  This Black-Eyed Peas with Thai Chili's and Chicken is an altered version of the old one that is more agreeable with my health goals.  Thai spices save the day by making it more interesting without increasing the health risk.

    The recipe is really very similar to the one I grew up with and the ingredients are very swap-able.  Here is the recipe below.  As always, we do our best to improve the recipes we love and make them healthier without sacrificing too much taste.  We love to hear your ideas on how to improve it even more.

    Ingredients:

    • 1 Chicken breast grilled and chopped into small pieces
    • 11 ounces of organic fresh hulled black-eyed peas or an equivalent of canned or frozen
    • 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
    • ⅛th teaspoon ground pepper
    • 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
    • 1 tablespoon of garlic chili paste
    • For garnish, you can use a couple of Thai peppers cut into very small pieces with scissors
    • 2 cups water
    Thai Spiced Black-Eyed Peas

    Black-Eyed Peas With Thai Spices

    Instructions:

    1. Simply add all the ingredients listed above into a pot and cook on high to bring to a boil.
    2. Once boiling turn it down to medium and cook covered for 30 minutes.  Check on the pot to make sue it doesn't go dry and to add another cup of both if it necessary.
    3. Taste it before garnishing with any of the Thai peppers.  They are very spicy so unless you are Thai or are used to fresh Thai peppers you may start with one chopped pepper for garnish and add more if you can tolerate the heat.  Alternatively, you might just place a few whole Thai peppers on top or on the side just for the appearance.  If you have Thai family like I do they will likely steal them and eat them whole relieving you if you are a wimpy white guy like me.  ;p.

    Enjoy!!
