  • Mix cream of coconut with hot water until smooth and well blended; set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; place chicken breasts into hot oil and fry until golden brown but still pink inside, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer chicken breasts to a paper towel-lined plate; sprinkle with lemon juice, ginger, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Place onions and garlic into the skillet over medium heat; cook and stir until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Return chicken breasts to the skillet on top of cooked onions and garlic; pour coconut cream mixture over chicken. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until chicken is cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 35 minutes.
