Chicken Aku Paku

    Cuisine:

    This is great! used 1 can of lite coconut milk and 1 can of broth, it's a good thing too because I had so much extra liquid! I also used 3 pieced chicken breasts (it's what I had on hand) instead of the whole chicken. I really enjoyed this, and am glad I came across it. Thanks!
