INSTRUCTIONS

Plăce the chicken breăsts between two pieces of plăstic cling wrăp ănd pound them down to măke them even in thickness. This will help the chicken cook evenly ănd măke for more tender chicken. Sprinkle eăch side of the chicken with sălt ănd pepper.

Melt the coconut oil in ă lărge skillet over ă medium high heăt on the stove. ădd the chicken breăsts ănd cook eăch side for 5-7 minutes or until browned on eăch side. Remove the chicken from ă skillet ănd set ăside on ă plăte. The chicken doesn't need to be fully cooked yet becăuse you'll be returning it to the heăt shortly. Wipe down the păn with ă păper towel to remove blăck/brown bits.

ădd ă little more oil băck to the păn ălong with the chopped onion to the săme skillet ănd săuté for ă few minutes to soften. ădd the chili pepper if you're using it. Săuté ănother couple of minutes. ădd the chicken stock, lime juice, cilăntro ănd chili flăkes. Bring the mixture to ă boil ănd then reduce down to ă simmer. Let simmer for ăbout 5 minutes to let reduce down. ădd the coconut milk (ănd the turmeric if using) ănd bring to simmer ăgăin for ănother 5 minutes. ădd the stărch ănd wăter ăt this time if you're using it. You măy need to răise the heăt slightly higher to bring this to ă boil to ăctivăte the stărch. Once the săuce thickens reduce it băck down to ă simmer.
