Chicken Yucatan image

"A flavorful, but not spicy, Mexican inspired dish. It cooks quickly, so if you want to serve a salad with this, get the chicken marinating and make the salad." I didn't put marination time in time on recipe since it can be anywhere from 10 minutes to 24 hours.

Time 26m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons white vinegar, can use cider vinegar
1 dash Tabasco sauce, more if desired
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, sliced
2 red bell peppers, can use green, seeded and sliced
1 1/2-2 cups canned tomatoes, chopped
1 dash pepper

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken into slices 1/8-1/4" thick. Marinate in a mixture of garlic, oregano, cumin, orange juice, vinegar, and hot sauce. Allow to marinate 10 minutes up to 24 hours, covered in the refrigerator.
  • Meanwhile, chop vegetables.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add oil and heat 30 seconds; add chicken and stir fry about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add onions and peppers and stir fry another 1-2 minutes, or until chicken is completely opaque. Add tomato and ground pepper and cook just until heated through.
  • Serve over brown rice with a side salad.
