Step 1

Slow cooker coconut lime chicken.

Step 2

Combine in Crockpot Add chicken, coconut milk, garlic, ginger, lime zest and juice, honey, salt, pepper, and chili if using. Stir to coat.

Step 3

Slow cook Cook on LOW for 3-4 or HIGH for 1 1/2-2 hours, until chicken is cooked through. Check chicken at 3 hour mark for low, one hour on high. If you’re “setting and forgetting,” set your time for 3.5 hours low and 1.15 hours high.

Step 4

Finish the sauce In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water; whisk to combine well. Remove the chicken and stir in the cornstarch slurry; increase Crockpot heat to high to let thicken for 15 minutes or so. At this point you can serve the chicken whole or shred it in the slow cooker and stir to coat in the coconut-lime sauce. When the sauce is thickened to your desired consistency, taste and add extra lime juice or salt if needed.

Step 5

Serve Serve chicken over fluffy rice, spoon plenty of sauce over, top with tropical salsa, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime.
