Chicken soup coconut juice

LP gave me a marvelously easy, low-fat recipe: chicken soup with coconut juice. 

Note: This recipe calls for coconut juice, NOT coconut milk. The juice can simply be poured out from the fruit itself, but the milk has to be extracted by squeezing the pulp. 

The ingredients are: 
  1. one whole coconut (Use all of the juice, and scrape out the flesh from the shell)
  2. half a chicken (I used kampung chicken as it has less fat)
  3. two dried red dates
  4. Pinch of salt (if preferred) 

If you wish to give the soup a more professional touch, you could cut the chicken into small pieces and steam the soup in the coconut itself. But this practical homemaker just threw everything into the slow cooker, went to take a nap and woke up to this deliciously fragrant soup:
