INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Light Coconut Milk
1 tsp Coconut Oil
1 tbsp Lime Juice
1/4 cup Fresh Basil
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Sauté the chicken until golden on both sides, about 4 minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the red bell pepper slices and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they soften slightly.
Pour in the light coconut milk and lime juice, allowing the sauce to simmer for 2 minutes.
Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over it. Let it heat through for another 2 minutes so the flavors meld.
Finish by stirring in fresh basil just before serving.
Serve the coconut-lime chicken alongside the cooked quinoa for a complete, balanced meal.
