Spiced Coconut Basil Chicken with Rice

4.0

Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cooking Time: 20 minutes | Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, chopped

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tbsp vegetable oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated

1 tsp ground coriander

1 tsp ground cumin

½ tsp turmeric

¼ tsp cayenne pepper (optional for heat)

1 (13.5 oz) can full-fat coconut milk

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tbsp brown sugar

1 cup fresh basil leaves, loosely packed

Juice of 1 lime

Cooked jasmine or basmati rice, for serving

Directions:

Season chopped chicken thighs with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken and sear until golden on all sides, about 5–6 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, sauté onion for 2–3 minutes until softened.
Add garlic and ginger, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in coriander, cumin, turmeric, and cayenne. Cook for 30 seconds to toast the spices.
Pour in the coconut milk, soy sauce, and brown sugar. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer.
Return the chicken to the pan and simmer for 10–12 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked and sauce thickens slightly.
Stir in basil leaves and lime juice, letting them wilt into the sauce.
Serve hot over steamed rice, garnished with extra basil if desired.
