Chicken breasts are a protein that so many of us turn to because its an easy, dependable, and healthy option. That also means its easy to get in a rut of seasoning it with some salt and pepper, cooking it quickly in a pan or on the grill, and calling it done. But chicken breasts dont have to be so basic. There are a million and one ways to flavor them that dont require any extra time take this one pan coconut lime chicken, for instance. The chicken comes out moist and tender, surrounded by a velvety coconut sauce infused with lime, ginger, garlic, and a little bit of a kick from some red chili flake. And it will only take you 20 minutes from start to finish.
