• Heat the oil in large skillet over medium heat and brown the chicken on both sides. Remove the chicken and pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the oil. Return the chicken to the skillet and add coconut milk and beer. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer until tender.
• Then add onions and the bell pepper, season with salt and pepper. Simmer uncovered until the liquid is gravy (15 minutes tops)
• If the liquid is gone before the chicken is finished, add more beer.
