Wash the strawberries thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel. Ensure they are completely dry to help the chocolate adhere properly.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dairy-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil.
Microwave the chocolate and coconut oil mixture on medium power in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and fully melted. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Hold a strawberry by its green leaves and dip it into the melted chocolate, ensuring it gets coated evenly up to the top.
Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the strawberry on the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet.
Repeat the dipping process for the remaining strawberries.
Sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt over each chocolate-covered strawberry while the chocolate is still wet.
Let the strawberries sit at room temperature until the chocolate hardens, which should take about 15-20 minutes. For faster setting, you can place the tray in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
Once the chocolate is firm, serve the strawberries immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
