Ingredients

• Chicken breast - 300 grams, cut into bite-sized pieces
• Coconut milk - 60 ml
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Ground coriander - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine coconut milk, soy sauce, ground coriander, ground cumin, garlic powder, ginger powder, lime juice, and honey. Mix well to create the marinade.
2. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
