Instructions

Add coconut oil to a skillet or pan over medium/high heat. Add pepper slices and briefly sauté until softened, 2-4 minutes. Remove from pan, and set aside.
Heat up more coconut oil and add in onion, cooking for 4-6 minutes until translucent. Add in ginger, garlic, lime zest, green chili, cumin and cayenne pepper. Cook, stirring often, until it all starts to brown (4-6 more minutes).
Add in chicken and cook, over medium heat, until it's no longer pink in the center but still tender.   Add back in the peppers, coconut milk, water, stock, sweetener, fish sauce, liquid aminos, and lime juice. Simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Check for seasoning and serve right away over a bed of cauliflower rice with fresh cilantro and lime wedges.

Notes

*We prefer using full fat coconut milk and diluting it with a bit more water, but you can always use simple or light. And keep in mind that, depending on amounts and produce used, nutrition facts can vary widely for this recipe.
