Preparation
Ensure that you have all ingredients prepared and ready before beginning. The key to a seamless cooking experience is preparation.
- Start by marinating the chicken. In a bowl, combine coconut milk, lime juice, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld.
- While the chicken marinates, prepare the mango and pineapple, and set them aside. Julienne the red bell pepper and chop the green onions.
- Cook the Jasmine Rice according to package instructions so it’s ready to serve once the chicken is done.
Cooking Process
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and black pepper.
- Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear them on both sides until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Add the remainder of the marinade to the pan along with the honey. Reduce the heat to low and allow the chicken to simmer in the sauce until fully cooked, using a timer to ensure it doesn’t overcook, about 15 minutes.
- Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the skillet and set aside. Add the diced mango, pineapple, julienned red bell pepper, and chopped green onions to the skillet. Cook until the mixture is heated through, about 5 minutes.
- Finally, slice the chicken and return it to the skillet, tossing it with the fruit mixture to combine all the flavors.
