De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

1
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat.
Ongeveer 1 min
2
Add the chicken breast pieces to the hot pan and cook until lightly browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Do not cook through completely.
Ongeveer 6 min
Tip van de kok: Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan, which can steam the chicken instead of browning it.
3
Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
4
Add the yellow onion to the same pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Ongeveer 3 min
5
Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Ongeveer 1 min
Tip van de kok: Be careful not to burn the garlic.
6
Add the red bell pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender-crisp.
Ongeveer 2 min
7
Pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Ongeveer 3 min
8
Return the chicken to the pan. Add the lime juice, fish sauce, salt, and black pepper.
9
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Ongeveer 11 min
10
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
