Best Sauteed Chicken With Tomatoes And Cilantro Recipes

CHICKEN WITH FRESH TOMATO CILANTRO CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• To prepare the sauce:.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and a bit of olive oil in a pan. Add chopped onions, pepper, garlic and sauté until tender. Add 2-3 teaspoons of tomato paste, stir around until all coated. Add chopped tomato, stir around, add a bit of water, like ½ cup or so to give some liquid. Add lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add a tablespoon of cumin. Add a few dashes of Red Hot.
• A tumeric and a dash of dry adobo spice if you are using. Add fresh, chopped cilantro, approx.1/2 cup or so, you can't go wrong on amount.
• Cover and simmer until almost a liquid, approximately 30 minutes. If it gets too thick, you can always add some water.
• When sauce is finished, it should be a semi-thick consistency. Add two tablespoons of cream cheese and stir until melted, stir in one tablespoon of heavy cream, cover and keep warm. (if too thick, add a little water to loosen).
• To prepare chicken/potatoes:.
• In a large frying pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and a bit of olive oil.
• Add sliced, salt and peppered potato slices and fry on each side until golden brown.
• Transfer to platter and cover with foil to keep warm and to get a bit soft from the steam being covered.
• In same pan add sliced onions, brown in oil until done, spoon atop potato slices, cover to keep warm.
• In same pan, add more butter/oil. Add chicken breasts and sauté on each side on low heat, keeping covered, then uncovering when almost done to brown nice.
• Transfer these to platter and arrange on top of potato/onion slices.
• Drizzle the sauce atop these and around the platter.
• Serve extra sauce in a dish on top of a plate decorated with colored tortilla chips.

SAUTEED CHICKEN WITH TOMATOES

Steps:

• Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil and cook chicken 3 to 5 minutes, until golden brown. Turn and cook other side about 3 minutes, until golden brown. Add the mushrooms and continue cooking. Add bay leaf, thyme, onion, and garlic. Cook, shaking and stirring the skillet so everything cooks evenly. After chicken is done (about 10 to 12 minutes), remove chicken and set aside.
• Sprinkle flour into pan and stir to blend. Add wine, tomatoes, and broth. Stir and bring to a boil.
• Return chicken and any juices that accumulate. Add anchovies, salt and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer 5 minutes. Add olives and cook another 5 minutes.

CHICKEN TOMATO CASSEROLE WITH CILANTRO PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Chicken -- I use a baggie to marinade my chicken. Just add the olive oil, lime juice, salt, cayenne and chicken, close up the baggie and shake well to make sure the chicken is covered with the marinade. I like to marinade at least 1-2 hours and up to 8 hours (or all day).
• Make sure to take the chicken out of the refrigerator to let it come to room temp before you begin to saute.
• In a large saute pan (I prefer non-stick for this) add the olive oil and saute the chicken on medium high until golden brown on each side. Cooking time will depend on the size of your chicken breasts. About 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate while you finish the pepper onion sauce.
• Pepper, Onion and Cilantro Sauce -- In the same pan you cooked the chicken in, add the remaining olive oil and bring to medium high heat. Then add in the garlic, green peppers, onion and cook 2-3 minutes until tender, but not brown. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro.
• Casserole -- Spray a 9x9 casserole dish with a non stick spray. Line the bottom of the dish with 2/3's of the tomato slices and season with salt and pepper. Then top with 2/3's of the pepper onion cilantro sauce, 1/2 the cheese, and the chicken breasts. Repeat with the remaining tomatoes and the pepper onion cilantro sauce over each chicken breast.
• NOTE: You can use individual baking or casserole dishes for this if you want.
• Bake -- In a 400 degree oven, bake 15-20 minutes, then sprinkle each chicken breast with the remaining cheese. Bake an additional 15 minutes until the chicken is tender. ENJOY!
