Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
3 1/2 teaspoons chili powder, divided
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (14 ounce) can stewed tomatoes, with juices
1/4 ounce unsweetened chocolate

Steps:

  • Using 1 tsp of the chili powder, season the breasts, along with salt and pepper to taste.
  • In a heavy skillet that comfortably holds both breasts, heat the oil over mediium-high heat and cook the chicken until brown on both sides (about 2 minutes per side); transfer cooked chicken to a plate and add the remaining chili powder, along with the cumin and cinnamon, to the skillet and saute, stirring, for 15 seconds.
  • Stir in the tomatoes and their juices along with the chocolate and simmer until the sauce thickens up, about 5 minutes.
  • Add chicken, along with any juices that have accumulated on the plate, back into the skillet and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 4 minutes.
  • Taste sauce; add salt and pepper if desired.
