Rinse the shirataki noodles under cold running water for 2-3 minutes to remove any unwanted odor. Drain and set aside.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper.
In a large pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook for 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the minced garlic and ginger. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced red bell pepper to the pan and cook for another 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.
Pour in the coconut milk and add the soy sauce. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.
Add the cooked chicken back into the pan along with the shirataki noodles. Stir to coat the noodles and chicken with the sauce.
Let the mixture cook for another 3-5 minutes to heat the noodles through and slightly thicken the sauce.
Remove the pan from heat and stir in the lime juice.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve hot. Enjoy your creamy, keto-friendly chicken coconut pasta!
