For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the chicken marinade for a subtle kick. If you don't have fresh ginger, 1 teaspoon of ground ginger can be substituted, but the flavor will be less vibrant. To prevent the honey from burning, keep the heat at medium and stir the chicken frequently.

01 Step
Recipe View Marinate the Chicken: In a glass bowl, combine the chicken breast cubes with the lime juice, lime zest, and grated ginger. Ensure the chicken is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (Time: 20 minutes +)
02 Step
Recipe View Prepare the Coconut Rice: In a medium saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk and sugar over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar completely. Stir in the jasmine rice, reduce the heat to low, cover tightly, and cook for approximately 20 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed. Once cooked, remove from the heat, fluff the rice gently with a fork, cover again, and keep warm. (Time: 25 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View Stir-Fry the Chicken: Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the marinated chicken along with the marinade. Stir-fry until the chicken is nicely browned and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Drizzle the honey over the chicken, stirring constantly for another minute or so, ensuring the honey doesn't burn and evenly coats the chicken. (Time: 5-7 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Assemble and Serve: Remove the chicken from the heat and sprinkle generously with sweetened flaked coconut. Serve immediately, alongside a generous portion of the fragrant coconut rice.
