A vibrant and flavorful grilled chicken recipe infused with creamy coconut milk and tangy lime juice. Perfect for summer evenings!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, combine coconut milk, lime juice, garlic powder, honey, and a pinch of salt. Add the chicken breasts to this delicious mixture, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  2. Prepare cooking space: While the chicken is marinating, set up your cooking area and cook your favorite rice. Preheat your stove for the next steps.
  3. Sear the chicken: Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden.
  4. Make sauce: Remove the chicken and add the marinade to the hot pan, bringing it to a gentle simmer for about 3-5 minutes.
  5. Serve chicken: Return the chicken to the skillet, allowing it to soak up the delicious sauce for another minute.
  6. Garnish: Drizzle the sauce over the chicken and sprinkle fresh chopped cilantro.

Notes

Serve with fluffy rice or a salad. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
