Ingredients [ For 4 to 5 people ] [ Preparation time : 12 minute – Cooking time : 25 minutes ]
- 4 large Chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup Coconut cream
- 1 tbsp Lime juice
- 1/4 cup Fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)

- 1 medium Lime (sliced thinly)
Preparation Method
- Place the chicken breasts in a large bowl. Cover with water.
- Stir in a tablespoon of sea salt.
- Set aside to brine for 10 minutes.

- Grease lightly.
- Stir together the coconut cream, lime juice, cilantro, garlic, sea salt, and black pepper. (You can heat the coconut cream first if it’s too stiff to stir easily.)
- When the chicken is done brining, drain the water and pat dry.
- Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
- Pour the cream mixture over the chicken and spread evenly.
- Arrange lime slices on top in a single layer.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, until the chicken is firm and done.
- Garnish with additional fresh cilantro.
Enjoy it!!
