Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by washing the fresh spinach thoroughly. Finely chop the onion and garlic.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add the Chicken

    Season the boneless chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes. Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F) and is golden brown.

  4. 4

    Add the Spinach

    Once the chicken is cooked, add the spinach to the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring, until the spinach is wilted.

  5. 5

    Add Coconut Milk

    Pour the coconut milk into the skillet and stir to combine. Allow it to simmer for another 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from heat and adjust seasoning with additional salt and red chili flakes if desired. Serve warm.
