Let it heat up for about 2 minutes. Add in all the chicken thighs and salt and pepper. Coat well with the oil and sauté (while stirring occasionally) for about 5 minutes or until cooked through. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the thighs to another bowl or plate and set aside. Add the rest of the oil and the onions. Sauté for about 10 minutes until the onions have completely softened and begin to caramelize slightly. Add in the garlic and cook for about 1 minute, stirring frequently, making sure it does not burn. Immediately add the chicken back inside, as well as the mushrooms and zucchini. Add in the bone broth. Stir well, secure the lid and hit “Keep Warm/Cancel” and then hit “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” High Pressure for 15 minutes. Quick release when done. You will need to add coconut cream and plenty of salt and pepper, to taste. I prefer to add some red chili flakes as well, but if you do not want any kick to your soup, you can skip this step. Then add it all but chicken into a high-speed blender. I blended on high for about 45 seconds until it looked smooth and creamy throughout. Then, I added this back into the rest of the batch and gave it a nice stir. This was the consistency that I enjoyed but feel free to use less or more, depending on your preference. Roasting in oven - option Roast all of the veggies with avocado oil and seasonings at 400 for 45 minutes until golden. Blend with liquids, reduce if thin in saucepan. Add chicken at the end to serve. Serve with cauliflower pasta, wonder noodles, or zucchini noodles. Top with imported parmesan, manchego or nutritional yeast.

  • Coconut Vanilla Frosting or Sauce

    5 star :: Tastes like white chocolate...it is. Paleo and Keto Version. 1/2 cup cacao butter 1/2 cup coconut / almond manna 5 tablespoons powdered chicory root 1/2 tsp monk fruit 1/2 tsp stevia powder 1 cup water 1 Tb gelatin 3 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 teaspoons apple cider vinegar Dash of salt KETO COCONUT VANILLA SAUCE INGREDIENTS: 1 cup coconut butter 1/2 stick grass-fed butter 5 tablespoons powdered sunflower lecithin (stored in the fridge), or more for a thicker texture 1/4 cup birch xylitol, or more to taste 4 cups of hot water (not boiling) 3 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar Dash of salt INSTRUCTIONS: In a blender, mix half the water with all the coconut and butter until well blended. Add remaining ingredients. Blend thoroughly until vanilla sauce takes on an ultra-creamy texture. Taste the sauce and add more vanilla or xylitol if desired. Store in a glass jar in the refrigerator. Sauce will be runny the first day but harden overnight. Reblend again after chilling, if desired, if you find any lumps. Recipe notes: By playing with the amount of water you use, the next morning you can get consistencies as stiff as cream cheese or sour cream all the way to whipped-cream-like. You can skip the vinegar but real milk has a very slight sour note, so if you skip the vinegar, you have less of a milk flavor and more of a coconut flavor.
