Coconut Milk Chicken

Yields 8 servings

You will need: 
2 tablespoons peanut or olive oil
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
3/4 cup Vidalia onions, diced
8 chicken breasts, boned, skinned, pounded to 1/2" thickness
In a heavy bottomed skillet, sauté onions and garlic. Add chicken breasts and brown lightly. Do not allow garlic to brown (you might want to add it towards the end of the sauté).

Sauce:
You will need:
3/4 cup white vinegar
2 1/2 cups water
1 chicken bouillon cube
2 cloves garlic
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon ground bay leaf
1/2 cup soy sauce (low sodium)
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
In a blender, combine sauce ingredients. Add to skillet. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until chicken is tender.

To Serve:
1/2 cup coconut milk (preferably fresh, but canned will work)
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
Pour coconut over chicken and allow to simmer an additional 20 minutes. Place on serving dish and ladle over with sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley.
