Creamy Key Lime Chicken

Ingredients

  • 5 chicken thighs
  • 1/2 cup coconut fat
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 1 small vidalia onion
  • 4 key limes
  • salt + pepper
  • 1 tsp toasted coriander
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • coconut oil

Instructions

  1. First season your chicken with spices & set aside.
  2. Slice onion and saute 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 on over lapping.
  3. Brown chicken on both sides.
  4. In the meantime, juice the key limes.
  5. Add key lime juice, stock & coconut fat to the skillet.
  6. Bring to a simmer, lower heat, and cover with lid.
  7. Simmer for 30 minutes.
  8. I served mine with mashed yuca & summer squash zoodles. The sauce is so yummy, you just want to drink it up 🙂
