*Suitable while detoxing but recommended as a lunch time meal due to animal protein*

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup tamari

Method

1. In a small bowl, combine tamari, ginger and chicken. Let marinate at least 30 minutes.
2. Place greens in large pot of boiling water and blanch 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and immediately transfer to ice water to stop cooking and retain color. When cool, drain and set aside.
3. In a large sauté pan or wok, heat coconut oil over medium high heat and sauté chicken about 5 minutes until well browned.
4. Add carrots, scallions and cooked greens. Sauté another 3 to 5 minutes, tossing to mix ingredients. Serve with additional soy ginger sauce.
