2 teaspoons sugar

Instructions

Combine first 6 ingredients in a medium bowl. Add chicken to broth
mixture, stirring to coat. Let stand 3 minutes.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Drain
chicken, reserving marinade. Add chicken to the pan; cook 4 minutes or
until done, stirring frequently. Stir in the reserved marinade. Reduce
heat; cook 1 minute or until slightly thickened. Remove pan from heat.
Combine greens and basil in a large bowl. Add chicken mixture,
tossing to coat. Place 1 1/4 cups salad mixture on each of 4 plates.
Top each serving with 2 tablespoons onion and 1 1/2 teaspoons peanuts.
Serve immediately. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.

Notes
---
The pan sauce in this dish doubles as a piquant vinaigrette for the
salad. Serve with crunchy breadsticks, if you wish.
