We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • 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.
