Coconut Milk Braised Chicken Thighs
Pan-seared chicken thighs simmered in a creamy, aromatic coconut milk sauce infused with ginger and lime for a vibrant, silky finish.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz boneless skinless chicken thighs
0.25 cup full-fat coconut milk
0.5 cup sliced red bell pepper
0.25 cup diced yellow onion
1 tsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 tsp freshly grated ginger
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp turmeric powder
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
PREPARATION
Season the chicken thighs on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and turmeric powder.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown, then remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and sliced red bell pepper, sautéing for 3 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the coconut milk and lime juice, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Return the chicken to the skillet and lower the heat to medium-low.
Simmer for 8-10 minutes, uncovered, until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through.
Fold in the baby spinach during the last minute of cooking until just wilted.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve warm.
