Ingredients
– 1 3/4 cups full-fat coconut milk or coconut cream for base sauce
– 1/2 cup chicken stock for moisture and depth
– 2-4 Tbsp fresh lime juice, to taste for zesty kick
– 2 Tbsp honey or alternative sweetener for sweetness
– 1 Tbsp cornstarch (optional) for thickening
– 1 Tbsp freshly grated ginger for warm spicy note
– 1 stalk lemongrass, peeled and finely grated (optional) for citrusy aroma
– 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced for main protein
– Fine sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper to season
– 2 Tbsp olive oil, divided for sautéing
– 2 scallions, sliced (white and green parts separated) for flavor
– 3 cloves garlic, minced for aromatic base
– 3 cups broccoli florets (approximately 300 g) for vegetables
– Chopped fresh cilantro for topping
– Thinly sliced Thai bird chilies or other hot pepper for optional heat
Instructions
1-Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round baking pan.
2-Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to mix evenly.
3-Add wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, and 2 large eggs until fully combined. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; do not overmix.
4-Bake the batter: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5-Cool the cake: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before frosting or serving.
