Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds chicken thighs (boneless without skin)
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil (divided use)
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock (unsalted or low sodium)
  • 1 (15-ounce) can coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons curry powder
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more)
  • Kosher salt (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro

Instructions

  1. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and cut it into bite-size cubes.
  2. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring, for about 6 to 8 minutes or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked. Remove the chicken pieces to a plate and set aside.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of coconut oil to the skillet. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger to the skillet and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until the onion is translucent and the vegetables are aromatic.
  4. Add the chicken stock, coconut milk, lime juice, curry powder, soy sauce, and crushed red pepper flakes; stir to blend. Taste and add salt as needed. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.
  5. Add the chicken back to the skillet and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes longer.
  6. Serve over rice, rice noodles, cauliflower rice, or vegetable noodles and garnish with cilantro.
