Coconut Ginger Chicken Recipe

January 31, 2016

Coconut Ginger Chicken

Can ya’ll tell I’ve been thinking a lot about food lately?  Post-baby I want to make sure I’m eating healthy, but I also need recipes that are fast and easy to make.  This Coconut Ginger Chicken is delicious and super simple to throw together.  The best part is there’s no need to make special ginger sauce, I just used Naturally Fresh® dressing!

    Fast and easy to make recipes are going to be exactly what you want after the baby is born. I’ve been been making the same couple of recipes since my little man was born just because of how easy they are to make.

    That seems easy enough, and pretty tasty, too. I like how the coconut is more of a garnish than a main flavor.
