Stewed Chicken in Coconut Sauce

The refreshing coconut milk, along with the added spice, is reminiscent of Caribbean cuisine. This chicken is versatile, as it can be consumed as an entrée with sides of choice, yet it is saucy enough that it can also be added to a bowl of pasta. Get creative and enjoy!

Note: Because bouillon is typically high sodium, I only recommend adding salt if desired once sauce is finished cooking, at Step 7.
