In a large pot, heat coconut oil until it becomes fluid and fragrant. Choose a large, fresh onion, peel it, and chop it finely. Add the onion to the hot oil and let it sauté, stirring occasionally, until it becomes transparent and releases its aroma. Then, take a red bell pepper, wash it, remove the seeds, and cut it into cubes. Place the pepper in the pot, allowing it to soften slightly alongside the onion. Next, wash a few ripe, meaty tomatoes and cut them into larger cubes. Add the tomatoes to the mixture in the pot, letting their juice combine with the onion and pepper, creating a delicious base for your dish. After about 2-3 minutes, when the vegetables have started to soften, it's time to add the chicken thighs, which you have previously skinned and seasoned with salt and pepper. Also add a few crushed garlic cloves, which will provide a unique flavor. Don't forget the fresh basil, which can be added either whole or finely chopped, bringing a vibrant smell and flavor to the dish. Once you have added all the ingredients, cover the pot and let them steam on low heat. Meanwhile, take a can of creamy coconut milk and gradually add it carefully, so that it covers the chicken. The coconut milk will add a smooth texture and an exotic flavor. As the meat cooks, check the consistency of the sauce from time to time, stirring gently to prevent the onion from sticking to the bottom of the pot. When the chicken thighs are nearly done and the sauce has reduced, achieving a thicker consistency, it's time to prepare the side dish. A creamy mashed potato made from boiled potatoes, milk, butter, and a little salt pairs perfectly with this dish. Serve the thighs with the sauce on top, giving them an appetizing appearance. You can add a side of beet salad, which will bring a contrast of colors and a sweet-sour note, thus completing your meal. This recipe will not only delight your taste buds but will also bring joy around the table, being perfect for a family dinner or with friends.
