Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 chicken breasts (cook as per instructions and cut into 1/2 inch portions)
1/2 chicken bouillon cube
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon seasoning (Use complete season or what you like)
3 tablespoons corn oil
1/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 small onion (chopped)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 cup red wine
1 bay leaf
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon cumin

Steps:

  • Prepare a hot frying pan for frying the chicken breast. Place 2 Tablespoons of corn oil In the frying pan over a medium to high flame.
  • Coat or Dress the chicken breast with powdered seasoning (not bread-crumbs). You can use Maggi complete seasoning, Adobo or similar powdered "all season".

Place a lid over you pan and cook on a low to medium flame for an additional 8 minutes. Turn off and remove chicken breasts (save the broth or liquid contents that is in the pan for later use). You may want to place the chicken on a paper towel covered plate to drain off the oil. Cut the breasts into portions or ½ inch cubes / strips.
  • In a new frying pan add the other Tablespoon of Corn oil and place over a low flame.
  • Fry the chopped onions for 2 to 3 minutes. Now add the cumin, oregano and the liquid you have reserved from when you fried the chicken breasts. Also add red wine and 1 teaspoon of fresh lime-juice. Cook or simmer on a low flame for a few minutes, sufficient to blend and integrate everything in the pan and evaporate some of the water. Turn off and allow to cool down.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the ½ cup of mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon of lime juice, raisins, 1 tablespoon of tomato paste and salt & pepper to taste.
  • Add this mayonnaise mixture in your bowl to the pan and mix well.
  • Your crazy Dominican chicken is ready.
