Serves – 3 Time needed – 20 mins

Here’s what you need:

  • 400g chicken breast

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil

  • 1/4 cup potato starch, sifted

  • 1/4 cup wholegrain flour, sifted

  • 1/2 tbsp liquid aminos (soy sauce substitute)

  • White sesame

For the sauce

  • 2 lemons

  • 1 tbsp honey

  • 5 tbsp water

  • 1 tbsp potato starch

Here’s how you do it:

  1. Marinate chicken with potato starch and wholegrain flour, adding the liquid aminos. Mix well.

  2. In a small bowl, mix the ingredients for the sauce.

  3. Heat a non-stick skillet with coconut oil and pan-fry chicken for 6-8 mins, change sides halfway through. Once cooked, set aside.

  4. Boil the sauce over low heat in a separate saucepan until it thickens. This will take about 5 mins.

  5. Serve hot with brown rice and veggies, or if storing for meal prep, let it cool for an hour and separate into 3 containers. Let it cool completely before covering the container and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days.

  6. Enjoy!
