Step by Step Method
Step 1
Set oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl mix together the flour with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Lightly coat the chicken legs and thighs in the flour (shake off any excess flour -- the chicken should only be very lightly coated). Brown in hot oil on both sides (about 3 minutes per side) transfer to casserole dish.
Step 4
To the same skillet (adding in more oil if needed) add in onion; saute until tender (about 3-4 minutes). Add garlic; cook 1 minute.
Step 5
Stir in coriander, cumin, ginger, chili sauce, soy sauce and peanut butter; stir for 1 minute. Add in coconut milk; stir to blend and simmer for 2 minutes. Pour the sauce over the chicken in the casserole dish.
Step 6
Cover with foil and cook for 25 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking for about 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Step 7
Just before serving add in the grated lime zest. Serve with cooked rice.
