Ingredients
  • 2 diced chicken breasts raw
  • 2 tbsp Bacon Fat or Grapeseed Oil
  • 2 cups frozen broccoli florets or fresh broccoli cut from stalk
  • 1 cup raw organic cashews (not roasted or salted)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • ½ cup organic chicken stock
  • ½ cup organic coconut milk(full fat)
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • black pepper to taste
  • Optional: ¼ cup flaxseed meal
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to broil
  2. Dice chicken in small pieces
  3. Heat oil in large skillet (cast iron if possible)
  4. Brown chicken on medium to high heat. While chicken is cooking, make sauce.
  5. Pulse cashews, garlic cloves, coriander, salt and black pepper in food processor several times to break down cashews.
  6. Add chicken stock and coconut milk and blend until smooth and creamy. Note: The garlic will taste strong at this point but will dissipate when added to skillet.
  7. Add broccoli florets to chicken and let cook for a few minutes to soften. Do not over cook or it will get mushy.
  8. Add sauce to skillet and toss gently. Simmer on medium heat for 5 minutes. {Note: if using fresh broccoli place a lid on your skillet while simmering and add another few minutes to your time.}
  9. Optional: Sprinkle flaxseed meal over top of chicken and broccoli mixture.
  10. Transfer to oven until sauce thickens and bubbles. I finished by broiling for 2-3 minutes.
