One pot creamy coconut chicken

One pot creamy coconut chicken

You can’t beat a creamy chicken and this one is dairy free as well as being gluten free and low carb. It’s quick and easy and low washing up with just one pan used. I use the handy little 240ml pot of chicken stock from Osso which I get from WellEasy so reduced in price from the supermarkets. I also get my coconut milk from there.

 

ingredients

serves 2

 

1 tbsp olive oil
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 leek
5 large white mushrooms, sliced
3 garlic cloves
1 lemon, juiced
400ml full fat coconut milk
240ml chicken broth/stock
large handful of baby leaf spinach
salt and pepper
cauliflower rice to serve

 

method

prep time: 30 mins

 
  • Flatten the chicken breasts between baking parchment with a rolling pin and season with salt and pepper.

  • Bring a large flat pan to a medium heat and add some of the oil.

  • Fry the chicken breasts for about 4 minutes each side until almost done.

  • Remove chicken and set aside.

  • Reduce the heat and add a little more olive oil.

  • Add the leek and cook for a few minutes stirring occasionally. Then add the garlic and mushrooms and cook for a few minutes until mushrooms light brown.

  • Deglaze the pan with the chicken broth/stock scraping up the sticky bits.

  • Let that reduce for a few minutes and then add the coconut milk and lemon juice.

  • Leave it to reduce for around 5 minutes.

  • Add in the baby spinach and leave to wilt.

  • Add the chicken back in and leave that to cook for a few more minutes.

  • Add a good grind of black pepper.

  • Serve with cauliflower rice.

 

the health boost tip

Mushrooms are an excellent source of many minerals including selenium, copper, potassium and zinc. They are also an excellent source of the B vitamins. Mushrooms absorb vitamin D from the sun - just like us. To make sure your mushrooms contain lots of vitamin D put them in the sun to sunbathe before eating so they can absorb.
