Step-by-Step Instructions
- Slice each chicken breast in half lengthwise and pound to a uniform thickness of about 1/4-inch. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat with butter and olive oil, then cook the chicken for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, add remaining olive oil and the white parts of green onion. Sauté with minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in chicken stock, lime juice, lime zest, honey, and red pepper flakes. Stir and simmer for 5-7 minutes until reduced by half.
- Lower heat and stir in coconut milk, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook gently for another 4-5 minutes until sauce thickens.
- Return chicken to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes until cooked through. Ensure it's submerged in the sauce.
- Stir in green onion tops and cilantro for freshness. Serve hot over rice.
