Ingredients

Cooking Oil

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil)

Chicken

  • 1.5 pounds chicken fillet (cut into 1" cubes)

Seasonings

  • 2 teaspoons garlic salt (or salt, divided)
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic

Sauce Ingredients

  • 1 can full-fat unsweetened canned coconut cream (chilled; solid part only) ((13.66 ounces))
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 0.25 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1-2 tablespoons arrowroot or potato starch
  • 1 jar sun-dried tomatoes (drained, blotted dry, and chopped) ((8 ounces))
  • 0.5 ounces fresh basil ((optional but recommended))

Instructions 

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add cubed chicken, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic for the last minute.
  • In a bowl, whisk together chicken broth, nutritional yeast, oregano, remaining salt, and 1 tablespoon of starch.
  • Chop and prepare sun-dried tomatoes, ensuring they are well-blotted dry.
  • Add sun-dried tomatoes to the pan, then mix in the solid part of the coconut cream. Stir in the chicken broth mixture.
  • Bring sauce to a boil, then simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Adjust thickness with additional starch or broth as needed.
  • Season with additional salt to taste and serve with veggies or cauliflower rice.

Notes

For a creamier sauce, ensure to use only the solid part of the coconut cream.
