SAUTEED CHIPOTLE CHICKEN

Sauteed Chipotle Chicken image

We eat a lot of chicken and often experiment with ways to prepare it. We found some dried chipotle pepper flakes when we were in Arizona and decided to try using it in our sautéed chicken. It was fantastic! If you manage to find the chipotle flakes at your local whole foods or grocery, I recommend you buy them. They add a unique kick to any dish - also great on pizza. This recipe is quite versatile: use whatever chicken you happen to have; just make sure it's enough for 4 or you will need to adjust the ingredients.

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 tablespoons olive oil
6 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2-2 teaspoon finely chopped dried chipotle pepper (depending on how spicy you like your grub)
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt (you can substitute 1/4 teaspoon salt and use more crushed garlic)
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
3 cups chicken broth (from bullion or canned, doesn't matter) or 3 cups chicken stock (from bullion or canned, doesn't matter)

Steps:

Place everything but chicken broth into a bowl and coat chicken to season.
Sauté the seasoned chicken breasts in a large pan for 5 minutes each side (no need to add oil to pan).
Add chicken broth/stock.
Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
Serve.
You can use the leftover broth in the pan as gravy, just cook it uncovered on high for 5 minutes and drizzle over the chicken and rice (or whatever carb you have).
