Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt divided or more to taste
- 6 chicken thighs About 1.59 pounds or 722 grams, boneless, skinless, thoroughly pat-dried
- 2 teaspoons paprika sweet, powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 cup chicken broth 225 ml, or stock
- ¼ cup coconut cream 85 grams
- 2 cups Plantain chips 105 grams, see note
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Season the bottom of the pan with a few pinches of salt.
- Arrange the chicken thighs so they snuggly fit into the pan next to each other, and season with the remaining salt.
- Pan-fry for 5 to 7 minutes, then use a fork to turn them around. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes—season with paprika and onion powder.
- Pour in the broth and the coconut cream.
- Divide the plantain chips over and in between the chicken thighs. Cover and let it gently simmer over medium-low heat for 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, flavors have developed, and plantain chips have softened.

Notes
- Storage: Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Tips:
- Pat dry the chicken thoroughly with paper towels before cooking.
- When pan-frying, don't move the chicken for the first 5 to 7 minutes. You can peak at the 5-minute mark. But the chicken thighs will usually easily loosen from the pan when sufficiently browned. Let them cook longer if they seem to stick to the pan.
- Use the thickest part of a coconut cream can, if possible. Otherwise, shake the can to combine the liquid and creamy parts sufficiently.
- Allow the plantain chips to become mushy. Check halfway through cooking time to ensure they are well dunked into the sauce.
- Plantain chips: Go for a salted roasted plantain chips, but for a spicier touch, try a Jerk-Style Flavored plantain chips.
- Salt: Adjust the amount of salt to taste if you're using very salted plantain chips.
- Serving tip: It tastes best when served with a simple, refreshing salad like this Healthy Cucumber Salad or Mango Avocado Salad.
