Receta Skillet Chicken and Green Chili Sauce
Last night's delicious and healthy dinner was courtesy of a recipe on Delish. You know how sometimes you see recipes and the photographs look amazing, but when you make it yourself... doesn't look so hot? I've been there too, but this dish looked as good as it tasted. Even better - because it was so full of flavor, hubby didn't even seem concerned that it was healthy!
Skillet Chicken and Green Chili Sauce
The recipe below is to serve 2.
- 2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper
- 1 drizzle olive oil
- 1/2 can diced green chilies
- 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, cut in half
- 1/3 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1 tbs chopped fresh cilantro
Place chicken breasts between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. With rolling pin, pound breasts to an even 1/2-inch thickness. (Incidentally, this is a great stress buster!) Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
In nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add breasts and cook 6 to 7 minutes or until browned on both sides and chicken loses its pink color throughout, turning over once. Transfer breasts to platter; cover with foil to keep warm.
To skillet, add chilies, tomatoes, broth, cumin, garlic, and any juices from chicken on platter. Cook 3 minutes to reduce sauce slightly, stirring occasionally. Stir in cilantro.
Quick and easy. Now add a salad or some veggies and you have dinner.
