Coconut-Lime Chicken

FusionXXmain
90 min
medium
4 servings
Servings4
4 skinless boneless chicken breasts, about 1 1/2 pounds
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1/2 cup red onion, chopped
1 whole red chili, chopped (optional)
1 cup organic chicken stock
2 tablespoons lime juice (about 1 large lime)
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes
1/2 cup full fat coconut milk
1/4 cup coconut cream
1

Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic cling wrap and pound them down to make them even in thickness. Sprinkle each side of the chicken with salt and pepper.

2

Melt the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook each side for 5-7 minutes or until browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3

Add the chopped onion to the same skillet and sauté for a few minutes to soften. Add the chili pepper if using, and sauté for another couple of minutes. Add the chicken stock, lime juice, cilantro, and chili flakes. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer for about 5 minutes.

4

Add the coconut milk and bring to a simmer again for another 5 minutes. Add the starch and water if using, and raise the heat to bring to a boil to activate the starch. Once the sauce thickens, reduce back down to a simmer.

5

Add the chicken back to the skillet, cover, and let cook for another 5-10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

6

Serve with rice or cauliflower rice with the sauce spooned over the top. Add an extra sprinkling of cilantro and chilies.
