Ingredients
    1 bunch fresh cilantro, stems removed
    3 jalapenos, seeded and chopped
    1 piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
    3 tablespoons olive oil
    1 medium yellow onion, sliced
    1 small eggplant, quartered lengthwise and sliced 1/2 inch thick crosswise
    2 (13 1/2 ounce) cans unsweetened coconut milk
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
    1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
    2 cups cooked white rice

    Place the cilantro, jalapenos, ginger, and 1 tablespoon of the oil in a food processor and pulse until combined.
