Serves: 4 servings

Ingredients

½ cup wheat-free tamari (for gluten free) or soy sauce
½ cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 tablespoon peeled fresh ginger, minced
1 teaspoon curry powder
4 skinless boneless chicken breast halves
1 onion, sliced
8 ounces rice noodles
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
Toasted sesame seeds, to garnish (optional)

Instructions

Whisk the tamari or soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, ginger, and curry powder together in an 8-inch square glass baking dish. Add the chicken and onion, turning to coat with the marinade. Cover and let marinate at room temperature 1 hour or refrigerate up to 3 hours, turning the chicken occasionally.
Cook the rice noodles according to the package directions.
Meanwhile, prepare your barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat your oven broiler.
Remove the chicken from marinade. Strain the marinade into a medium saucepan, and add the broth. Boil until the sauce coats a spoon, about 12 minutes.
Once your grill is preheated, spray the chicken with oil. Grill it for about 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Slice each chicken breast.
Divide the rice noodles between 4 bowls, top each with 1 sliced chicken breast, and spoon the sauce over top. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, if using.
