"Chicken in a fragrant coconut broth with an intensity of flavour that belies the few ingredients this recipe uses! The broth is so good that you will want to drink it straight. And the chicken stays beautifully moist by roasting it in the broth/stock. This is a clean-eating recipe that you would never think of as "clean"!..."
