CHICKEN FAFA
This is a version of a Tahitian dish, since Taro is hard to come by in the U.S. I substitute it with spinach leaves. This is also a mild dish. Serve this dish with rice, I prefer sticky rice, but any other kind works well. For different flavors try jasmine rice.

Steps:
- Heat 1 T butter in a skillet, add onions and sauté until golden brown. Set onions in a bowl aside.
- In the skillet melt the remaining 1 1/2 T butter and place the chicken in the skillet and brown evenly.
- Add the onions and continue to cook until the chicken is no longer pink, 15-20 minutes (depending on thickness). Then add the garlic and spinach, cover and simmer for 5 more minutes.
- Before serving pour the coconut milk over the chicken and add salt and pepper to taste. Serve over hot cooked rice.
POLYNESIAN CHICKEN FAFA
Stew made of chicken, rice, onion, garlic, coconut milk, and spinach. Topped with shredded coconut. I serve this with warm tortillas. It reminds me of a dish we ate in Fiji.
