Coconut Lime Chicken and RiceSo here is another one-pot supper that is absolutely brimming with flavor and nutrition! My Coconut Lime Chicken and Rice entrée is so simple to prepare, using a handful of ingredients and just one pot. I used free range chicken wings in this version but you could substitute the wings for thighs, breasts or drumsticks. Just make sure you use free range chicken for the most nutritional value!
