Lime Coconut Chicken - The Collagen Co.

The combination of tangy lime, creamy coconut, and savoury chicken creates a delightful fusion of flavours, while the addition of aromatic spices like garlic and ginger adds depth to the dish. This recipe provides a balance of protein from the chicken, healthy fats from the coconut milk, and vitamins and minerals from the fresh ingredients, offering a satisfying and nourishing meal. It's even more perfect with our best-selling Purple Grape Collagen as a side drink!
