- Place the uncooked rice, coconut milk, water, salt, and pepper into a large pot.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, stir in the cut chicken pieces.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 20 minutes without lifting the lid.
- After 20 minutes, remove the pot from the heat and let it stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Fluff the rice and chicken mixture gently with a fork. Stir in the lime juice.
- Divide the mixture among four bowls. Top with fresh cilantro before serving.
Notes
If you prefer a thicker sauce, cook the mixture uncovered for the last 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the liquid reduces to your desired consistency.
