Kitchen Tools:

Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the chicken breasts. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook until fragrant. Pour in the coconut milk, lemon juice, and lime zest. Stir well to combine all the flavors. Add the chicken back to the skillet and let it simmer in the sauce for another 5 minutes.

Serve the Lemon-Lime Coconut Chicken hot, garnished with chopped cilantro for a burst of fresh flavor. This dish pairs perfectly with steamed rice or a side of roasted vegetables. Enjoy the tropical flavors and unique twist on a classic chicken dish!

The total weight of the cooked Lemon-Lime Coconut Chicken is approximately 900g. This recipe serves 4 people, with an average serving size of 225g. Each serving is estimated to have around 350 calories.

One unique tip for this recipe is to marinate the chicken in the coconut milk and citrus juices for an hour before cooking. This will help infuse the flavors into the meat and make it even more tender and delicious.

I hope you give this Lemon-Lime Coconut Chicken recipe a try and make it your own with any additional seasonings or ingredients you love. It’s a fun and easy dish that will transport your taste buds to a tropical paradise. Let me know how it turns out for you!
