• 14 ounces coconut milk (1 can)
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter

2. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring often, for 1 minute or until the garlic is fragrant and tender.
3. Stir in the coconut milk, creamy peanut butter, soy sauce, and brown sugar.
4. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the peanut butter is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
5. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
