INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast, cooked
1 cup Roasted Butternut Squash
1/4 cup Light Coconut Milk
1 tsp Coconut Oil
1/4 medium Onion (chopped)
1 clove Garlic (minced)
1/2 tsp Fresh Ginger (grated)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F to roast the butternut squash. Toss cubed squash lightly with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of coconut oil, then spread on a baking tray. Roast for about 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the squash roasts, heat the coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté until the onion softens and becomes translucent.
Add the chicken breast (if not already pre-cooked, lightly sear until golden on both sides) into the skillet. Pour in the light coconut milk, and season with salt and pepper. Let the chicken simmer in the creamy sauce for about 6-8 minutes until heated through and infused with the spices.
Plate the chicken, spooning some of the coconut sauce over it. Serve alongside a generous portion of roasted butternut squash.
Enjoy this comforting dish with its creamy, aromatic flavors and balanced nutrients.
