Creamy Coconut Pan-Seared Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Savor the succulent flavor of pan-seared chicken elevated with a silky coconut sauce, perfectly paired with roasted asparagus. This dish features tender chicken with a hint of tropical creaminess and a refreshing citrus note, making it a light yet satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Light Coconut Milk (Unsweetened)
1 tsp Coconut Oil
1 cup Fresh Asparagus
1 clove Minced Garlic
1 tsp Lime Juice
1 tbsp Coconut Cream (for drizzle)
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the asparagus with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a light drizzle of coconut oil, then spread them on a baking sheet.
Place the asparagus in the oven and roast for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy at the tips.
While the asparagus roasts, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil. Once melted, add the chicken and pan-sear for about 5-6 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the light coconut milk and lime juice, scraping any brown bits from the pan. Allow the sauce to simmer for 2-3 minutes until it slightly thickens.
Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over it to coat well.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted asparagus and drizzle the dish with a tablespoon of coconut cream for an extra touch of creaminess. Serve immediately.
