Description

A creamy and savory one-pot meal that’s easy to make and perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken thighs, cut into chunks
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup rice (white or brown)
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • Fresh lime juice, to taste
  • Cilantro, for garnish


Instructions

  1. Brown the chicken thighs in a large pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the garlic, rice, coconut milk, broth, salt, pepper, and vegetables.
  3. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook until the rice is tender and chicken is cooked through.
  4. If needed, adjust the liquid, adding more broth if it gets low.
  5. Serve with lime juice and cilantro on top.

Notes

Use full-fat coconut milk for best results. Leftovers get better with time, so consider making a double batch.
