Thai Basil Broccoli Beef with Purple Noodles

I was so blessed to be sent a product sampling box from Thai Kitchen!

Thai Basil Broccoli Beef Over Purple Corn Coconut Noodles  Gluten-Free

adapted from Martha Stewart

4 ounces Thai Kitchen purple corn and rice noodles

1 can (13.5 ounces) coconut milk

Coarse salt

2 tablespoons teaspoon fish sauce

2 tablespoons gluten free soy sauce -or- braggs amino acids

2 tablespoons sweet red chili sauce

1 tablespoon canola oil

3 garlic cloves, chopped

2 jalapeno chiles, seeded and sliced into 2-inch matchsticks

1 1/4 pounds beef steak cut into strips

1 cup loosely packed torn fresh basil leaves

1 cup chopped broccoli

Lime wedges

In a medium saucepan, combine noodles, coconut milk, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cover and bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook

until noodles are tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 7 minutes. Don't be afraid of the color, it is from purple corn!

While noodles are cooking combine oil, fish sauce, soy sauce or braggs, and sweet chili sauce into a large pan and bring to medium high heat. 

Add your beef, and garlic 

When beef is halfway done, add in your broccoli and peppers. Cook for 2 minutes. Toss in basil the last 30 seconds and stir. 

Serve over the purple coconut noodles with lime wedges. Squirt on the limes before eating.
