Heat the oil in a deep pan. Add the spring onions and garlic and sauté lightly. Add the bell peppers and tomatoes and sauté lightly. Deglaze with coconut milk. Add the chicken breast fillet and simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes. Add the lime juice, salt, pepper, and parsley. I like to eat this slightly creamy stew over rice. You can also serve it with potatoes or pita bread. Fish also works well instead of chicken. You can garnish with desiccated coconut.
