½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
2 tbsp avocado oil, divided

For the sauce

12 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 cup chicken broth
1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
1 tsp arrowroot starch
1 tbsp cold water
salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

1
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season both sides with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
2
Heat 1 tbsp avocado oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken breasts and sear undisturbed for 5–6 minutes, until the underside is deep golden and releases easily from the pan. Flip and cook for another 5–6 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) on an instant-read thermometer at the thickest part. Transfer to a plate and tent loosely with foil.
