This is a one-pan dish that is rich and comforting. If you love lemon, you will fall in love with this chicken. Nothing beats comfort food on a cold winter day. The breading on the chicken isn’t very thick but adds a layer of flavor you wouldn’t get without the breading.

  1. On a large plate, mix the paleo flour, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of sea salt, and pepper.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the flour mixture and dredge until each breast is fully coated. Set them aside.
  3. In a large skillet on medium heat, add the avocado oil. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and sear until golden brown, about 7-8 minutes.
  4. Flip the chicken and repeat the process searing the opposite side. Once both sides are golden brown, remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
  5. Add the ghee to the pan. Once it’s melted, add the minced garlic and sauté until it’s fragrant, about 1 minute.
  6. Add the chicken broth, spinach, and capers to the pan and cook until the spinach is wilted.
  7. Add the coconut milk, lemon juice, and 1 ½ teaspoon of sea salt.
  8. Whisk the ingredients together and bring the mixture to a simmer. Continue simmering for 5-6 minutes.
  9. Add the chicken back into the pan with the sauce and continue cooking until the chicken is no longer pink and fully cooked for about 7-10 minutes.
  10. Remove the pan from the heat and top with the basil. Enjoy!
