Coco Patata instructions

1. Wash the chicken, remove bone and skin and dice to bite sizes. Preferably cubed..
2. In a bowl, pour in the cubed raw chicken and add honey, soy sauce, salt, ketchup, blended red bell pepper and cayenne pepper. Put it in the fridge to marinate..
3. Wash irish potatoes, peel and dice them to bite able sizes and put into cooking pot and pour the coconut milk, just enough to cover the potatoes and start cooking! (Yes I cooked this on the stove cause it was my first time and didn't know how I would handle it in the oven. I do feel it could taste even better oven cooked but that's up to you to try. Hehe).
4. While the potatoe is cooking, slice your vegetables. Remove seed and white from the green bell pepper and cut in thin long slices, same with the fresh tomatoes . Cut the carrots in thin long slices not too long... also cut the spring onions. Basically prep your vegetables..
5. Heat the coconut oil till it sizzles when you drop water. Add the marinated chicken and fry till its just about done, add half of the vegetables except the onions..
6. When the chicken is ready, pour the whole content into the potatoe and stir gently. Add garlic and ginger powder and the remaining fresh vegetables and stir again. Turn off the heat after about... a minute..
7. For cheese lovers, you can add your choice of cheese a minute before turning off the heat. I would try it next time. PS: this is my first time of posting like this, I hope the directions are clear enough to understand. Ask questions..
