Ingredients

  • 1 chicken, cut up for frying
  • ½ tsp. of ground coriander
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp. dried orange peel
  • 1 tsp dried minced garlic
  • ¼ cup Red Palm Oil

Directions

1

In a large cast iron or frying skillet, melt the red palm oil. Heat the red palm oil over high heat until you notice the traditional "burn off" that is a result of not filtering the oil. You will notice a small amount of smoke followed by the oil darkening several shades. Turn the heat to medium.

2

In a small bowl, mix the salt and spices. Dust the chicken with the spice mixture. Place the chicken in the skillet and cover with a lid. Cook each side of the chicken until well browned and thoroughly cooked. Drain and serve with Coconut Jasmine Rice and Red Palm Oil veggies.
