Creamy Coconut Lime Chicken in 30 Minutes
If there’s one dish that’s almost guaranteed to bring the whole family to the dinner table (besides macaroni and cheese and pizza) it’s creamy chicken. Every time I bring a skillet or serving platter full of chicken breasts drizzled with creamy sauce it disappears in seconds. All the better if I have rice or noodles on hand to mop up the sauce.
And while I love making and serving dishes like this I also can’t handle too much whipped cream. At some point my stomach gives me a hard “no” and it all goes downhill. To satisfy my craving for rich gravy chicken I created a version with coconut cream. It’s now my go-to weeknight chicken dinner.
While coconut cream is generally mild in flavor I decided to bring out the slightly tropical notes with garlic ginger and lime. Everything cooks in one pot from the chicken to the sauce to the crispy tender green beans and it’s ready in 30 minutes. Winner winner chicken dinner!
