Ingredients:

Serving

8 boneless and skinless chicken tenderloins
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (more if you like spicy !)
1/2 tsp turmeric
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 tbsp ground coriander
1 tbsp ground cumin
7 oz good-quality coconut milk ( not cream!)
2 tbsp fresh finely chopped lemongrass (usually found in a tube refrigerated near the produce section)
1 onion, peeled and quartered
4 garlic cloves
1 thumb-size piece ginger or 1 galangal
2 tsp dark soy sauce or 2 tsp braggs liquid aminos
2 1/4 tsp tamarind paste or 2 1/4 tsp vinegar
1 tbsp agave nectar
2 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp shrimp paste or 1 tsp substitute 1 tbsp. fish sauce
2 whole star anise
fresh cilantro
dry shredded coconut

Directions:

In a food processor combine all ingredients except Chicken and Whole Star Anise. Blend until smooth, taste and adjust as needed: for more salt add Fish Sauce; if it's too sour, add more Agave nectar.
In a large saucepan lay the chicken pieces in one layer and pour the sauce over them. Turn chicken pieces to coat well. Add the whole star anise.
Cook uncovered until chicken is done, this time will vary depending on if the chicken has bones in or not. For bone-in chicken, simmer until the sauce reduces by half. For boneless, remove chicken then reduce the sauce by half, returning chicken to pan to reheat when you are ready to serve.
Serve atop fragrant rice and garnish (optional) Enjoy!
