Every time I walk into The Coup restaurant in Calgary, they know I’m ordering the Dragon Bowl.
Every. Single. Time. It’s amazing! Peanut Butter is pure pleasure.
And…I found their delicious recipe online and decided to see if I could make it as good as they do. I was told mine tasted the EXACT same as theirs. Woohoo! Now this recipe can become one of my weekly dishes, and it can become one of yours too! I’m looking forward to walking into The Coup now, and trying something else on the menu. Their selection of fabulous vegetarian/vegan dishes are all very tempting, time to test them out.

The Coup’s Peanut Satay Dragon Bowl
Ingredients
Best sauce on the planet! Plus it makes a ton, you can freeze and use in other dishes too:)
- 2 cups crunchy natural peanut butter (or smooth with 1/2 cup chopped raw peanuts)
- 2 cups water
- 1/2 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- the juice of 1 lime
- 1 can of reduced fat coconut milk
- 1 tbsp dark brown sugar
- 3-6 tbsp of sriracha (or your preferred chilli sauce. The recipe called for 2 tbsp, I added 4, taste as you go)
Stir-fry
- 1 package of extra firm tofu (would also be great with cubed chicken, beef, shrimp, etc.)
- 4 cups of seasonal veggies of your choice (I used carrots, red/orange/yellow peppers, and broccoli)
- 1/2 bunch of cilantro, roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup roughly chopped peanuts
Directions
- In a large pot over medium heat, mix the peanut butter and water together.
- Continue to stir until you reach a smooth consistency, watching that you do not burn the peanut butter.
- Add the rest of the sauce ingredients and continue to cook at a low heat, stirring often for about 20 minutes.
- In the meantime, in a large pan, sauté the tofu until the edges are crispy and lightly browned. Add the chopped veggies and a splash of water to just cover the bottom of the pan. Sauté until tender-crisp.
- Pour the peanut satay sauce over the tofu and veggie mixture and heat until it bubbles.
- Serve over your favourite grains or noodles.
- Garnish with cilantro and chopped peanuts.
Enjoy!!
