Ingredients

• ▢ 1½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
• ▢ ¾ cup canned full-fat coconut milk

Instructions

  Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade (discard remaining marinade). Arrange in an even layer in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned. Serve topped with the chutney.
