After I gave up veganism for the autoimmune protocol, it wasn’t as hard to start eating meat again as I had thought it would be. All the grains, beans, and nuts I’d been eating as a vegan had wreaked havoc on my digestive tract and the switch back to meat came with such relief it was… well, hard to argue with! This Chicken Lazone was one of the first meat-based recipes I adapted for the AIP. It lacks the traditional heat and spice, but still has great flavor and pairs well with Cauliflower Rice or zoodles!
Looking for Low-FODMAP Recipes?
The low-FODMAP diet is often prescribed for people with IBS or Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), and there’s a huge overlap of that demographic with people with autoimmune disease. My e-book 28 Days of Low-FODMAP AIP combines both IBS- and autoimmune-friendly diets in a 28-day meal plan designed to jump start and simplify this often-challenging diet change. Just you wait: The meal plan includes 50 exclusive low-FODMAP recipes you won’t find on my website or anywhere else, with dishes like Chicken Vindalo, Jambalaya, and crispy, crunchy Tostones. You’ll be amazed at the variety of flavors still available to you! The ebook is available as a digital download for $9.99.

This was amazing! So easy and delicious. I used COYO brand coconut yogurt. Thank you, thank you!
One note, the ingredient list says coconut oil, but the recipe says olive oil. Do you have a preference? I went with coconut oil myself, just melting it first.
I use them interchangeably, but some people don’t like to cook with olive oil or just don’t like the flavor. It’s just a matter of personal preference! I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe!
