Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh gingerroot
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
  • 1 cup shredded red cabbage
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped celery
  • 1 tablespoon sunflower kernels

Directions
