PREPARATION
1.
Melt the coconut oil in a large skillet over a medium high heat on the stove.
2.
Add the chicken and cook each side for 3-5 minutes or until browned on each side. Remove the chicken from a skillet and set aside on a plate. The chicken doesn't need to be fully cooked yet because you'll be returning it to the heat shortly.
3.
Add the chopped onion to the same skillet and sauté for a few minutes to soften. Add the chili pepper and sauté another couple of minutes.
4.
Add the chicken stock, lime juice, cilantro and chili flakes. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce down to a simmer.
5.
Let simmer for about 5 minutes to let reduce down. Add the coconut milk and bring to simmer again for another 5 minutes.
6.
Add the starch and water at this time. You may need to raise the heat slightly higher to bring this to a boil to activate the starch. Once the sauce thickens reduce it back down to a simmer.
7.
Add the chicken back to the skillet, cover and let cook for another 5-10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked all the way through.
8.
Serve with the sauce spooned over the top. Add an extra sprinkling of cilantro & chillies and top with extra lime slices if desired.
