Coconut Milk Baked Chicken

Jana here with a new recipe we loved!  We eat chicken a couple times a week, and are always looking for new ways to try it. I love roasting chicken, and this was my first time to use my cast iron skillet in the oven. The chicken was moist and so flavorful!  This chicken would pair well with any veggies, and some rice or quinoa! I found inspiration for this recipe here.

Coconut Milk Baked Chicken

6 tablespoons canned coconut milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice (fresh or bottled)
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 pounds bone in chicken (skin on)

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

2. Whisk together all ingredients (excluding chicken) until well combined. Toss chicken in mixture to coat.  Arrange in oven proof skillet or glass 9x13 dish.

3. Bake uncovered 30 minutes, or until chicken is done.

Enjoy!
