Milk Street Recipe
Kenyan Coconut Chicken
The Kenyan dish called kuku paka is a fusion of cuisines from East Africa, India and the Middle East. In it, a tomato-coconut sauce is seasoned with spices and aromatics, making the flavor profile similar to curry. But its richness is tempered with a dose of acidity added at the end (we use lemon juice, though other recipes may call for lime juice or tamarind). Serve with rice, warmed flatbread or starchy root vegetables.

Tip
Don’t forget to seed the jalapeños, unless you’re aiming to make a very spicy sauce. Also, don’t drain the juices from the tomatoes—they’re added to the pan, too, so you can simply empty the can’s contents into the skillet.
