Creamy Coconut Lime Chicken

Creamy Coconut Lime Chicken comes together easily! The Caribbean inspired meal the entire family will love! Serve it over cauliflower rice for the perfect weeknight meal!  This is a super healthy, easy to whip up meal! It’s savory & tangy, beautifully saucy. I love using boneless skinless chicken thighs for it, but breast will work too! A one-skillet recipe that is a weeknight lifesaver.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 5 chicken thighs (or 2 breasts cut in 4 pieces)
  • 1/2 cup canned coconut cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 1 small Vidalia onion
  • 4 limes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (AIP re-intro)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

 

Instructions

  1. Season your chicken with salt and spices & set aside.
  2. Slice onion and sauté in a large skillet (that has a tight-fitting lid) with coconut oil on medium heat. When onions are tender (about 5-8 minutes), turn up the heat and add chicken to skillet, spread out, not overlapping the chicken.
  3. Brown chicken on both sides, 4 minutes a side.
  4. In the meantime, juice the limes.
  5. Add the lime juice, stock & coconut fat to the skillet.
  6. Bring to a simmer, lower heat, and cover with lid.
  7. Simmer for 15 minutes.
  8. Serve over veggies and enjoy!
