PREPARATION
- Heat coconut oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Toss in garlic and ginger. Sauté for ~3-5 minutes until softened. Next turn off heat, then stir in turmeric, cumin, cinnamon, paprika and salt.
- Add in coconut milk, almond or peanut butter, broth and chicken thighs. Stir well then bring to a boil. Make sure chicken thighs are covered by liquid. Turn down to medium low and simmer uncovered for ~30 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked.
