Récipé Notés
Do not undér any circumstancés usé any coconut milk othér than cannéd unswééténéd coconut milk. I gét this quéstion a lot. Cannéd coconut milk is thick and not as watéréd down as thé kind you'll find in thé réfrigératéd séction of thé storé. This résults in a strong coconut flavor and that's what wé want in this dish! I préfér Thai Kitchén (maké suré it says unswééténéd and doés not say low fat) but théré aré othér brands that work wéll too!

Nutritional information is for 1 chickén bréast plus 1/4 of thé saucé. If you slicé éach bréast in half and énd up with 8 thin cutléts rémémbér that 2 of thosé cutléts is thé équivalént of 1 bréast. If you only havé 1 thin cutlét thén you'll nééd to 1/2 thé nutritional info.
