Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon coconut oil
  • 5 cloves garlic roughly crushed and skins removed
  • 4 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite sizes pieces
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 8 oz coconut milk canned

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium/low heat add the chicken and coconut oil
  2. Cook for 2 -3 minutes and then add the apple cider vinegar, water and garlic cloves and cook for 3 minutes.
  3. Add the salt and pepper and cook until the liquid all boils down. This should take roughly 10 minutes.
  4. Stir in the coconut milk and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes until your liquid thickens slightly and you have a coconut mixture that resembles a gravy.
  5. Remove from heat and enjoy!
  6. Please note that if you leave the pan on the heat, the gravy will cook away until you have coconut oil.
