Creamy Cilantro Lime Chicken Recipes

CREAMY CILANTRO LIME CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. If the chicken breasts are all an uneven thickness, use a meat tenderizer like this one or a heavy pan and pound out the breasts until they're all the same thickness. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
• In a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Place chicken breasts in skillet and cook for 5 minutes on each side, or until both sides are browned.
• Place skillet in oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until chicken is fully cooked through and the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees F.
• Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the cooked chicken to a large plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.
• Place the same hot skillet over medium heat and add the onions. Cook for 2 minutes, scraping the bottom of the skillet to get the brown bits off the pan. The skillet should still be very hot so be careful.
• Add the green chiles and garlic. Cook for 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, lime juice, cumin, oregano and coriander.
• Mix together and bring to a gentle boil for 10 minutes or until liquid has greatly reduced.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and mix in the cream and cilantro. Place the cooked chicken in the sauce and serve.

Steps:

• Pat chicken breasts dry and sprinkle with 1/2 the Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to the very hot oil and cook, turning occasionally, until juices run clear when chicken is pricked with a fork and both sides are browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside, reserving drippings in the skillet.
• Add green onions and bell pepper to the drippings in the skillet. Cook until tender, about 1 minute. Add chicken broth and wine and bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Simmer until juices have reduced to about 3/4 cup, about 5 minutes more. Add cream and continue to simmer to reduce slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and cilantro, plus remaining Cajun seasoning. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add chicken to the skillet, cover, and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes more.
