Provided by Kristen Stevens

Categories     Dinner

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 chicken breasts
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
½ teaspoon EACH: salt and pepper
2 teaspoons cooking oil
1 ½ cups chunky salsa
½ cup frozen corn
1 cup grated cheddar cheese (a mix of white and orange cheddar is nice)
Cilantro (to serve)

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so that you have 4 thinner pieces. Sprinkle the chicken evenly with the taco seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear until golden, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pan.
  • Add the salsa and corn to the pan and stir, scraping up any bits that have stuck to the bottom of the pan. Lower the heat to medium-low and add the chicken back into the pan. Cover the pan and let the chicken simmer in the salsa for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Top with the cheese then cover the pan and let the cheese melt, about 1 minute. Serve with some cilantro over the top.

CHICKEN SALSA VERDE

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Four 6-ounce chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, at room temperature
2 tablespoons plus 4 teaspoons canola oil
4 teaspoons kosher salt, for seasoning
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
5 cloves garlic, crushed with sprinkle of salt
2 anchovies in oil, drained, finely chopped
1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup fresh chives
1/4 cup fresh tarragon leaves
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Preheat a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle the chicken with 2 tablespoons of the canola oil. Season with 2 teaspoons of the salt and 1 teaspoon of the pepper; drizzle with the remaining 4 teaspoons canola oil.
  • Place the chicken seasoned-side down on the grill. Season the side facing upwards with the remaining 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Cook the chicken until golden-brown and the exterior has formed a crust, turning midway through to form the cross-hatch pattern, 3 to 4 minutes. (Note: the chicken is not being flipped, the same side is still on the grill.) Flip the chicken and repeat until the other side is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. The center of the chicken should be firm to the touch when poked and the meat thermometer should read 165 degrees F.
  • For the salsa verde: Combine the garlic and the anchovies on the cutting board. Put the parsley, chives and tarragon on the cutting board and coarsely chop to combine with the garlic mixture. Put the salsa mixture in a medium bowl and add the lemon zest. Add the red pepper and salt. Mix the herb mixture together while drizzling in the olive oil until thoroughly combined. Put the salsa in a serving bowl and set aside until the chicken is ready.

SALSA CHICKEN



Salsa Chicken image

When I was doing Weight Watchers and the boys were home, I got really tired of fixing 3 sets of meals each night. When I came upon this recipe - I just didn't tell them this was WW and to this day they still don't know. When the boys come home now - this is one dish they will request. Super fast & easy to fix on work nights. 4 oz. = 4 WW points (without rice) *Note - in response to some reviews that experience the sauce being too runny or thin...extend the reduction time (after removing lid). It may take another 5-10 minutes to thicken and have the consistency you desire. **Use any diet cola you like. Back when this recipe was given to me (early 1970s) Diet Coca Cola was the only Diet soda around and the scares were not out like today (2018)To this day I call any Diet Soda - Coke.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa (your choice of heat)
1 (12 ounce) can Diet Coke (DO NOT SUBSTITUTE ON THIS ITEM)
1 lime, juice of, fresh squeezed

Steps:

  • In 12 inch skillet, cook chicken over medium high heat in UNSEASONED pan (do NOT spray with PAM or add any oil or butter).
  • Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Chicken will stick a bit to skillet when turning but that is ok.
  • Cook till just brown- you want a bit of color.
  • Add the entire jar of Salsa and the can of Diet Coke.
  • Reduce heat to medium low- and simmer for approximately 15-20 minutes, covered.
  • Remove lid, turn chicken and continue to simmer until sauce has thickened to desired consistency.
  • When ready to serve, squeeze juice from 1 fresh lime over the chicken.
  • I serve this over yellow rice (I just add turmeric to my rice when cooking- adds nice bright yellow color!).
  • Do not use regular Coke as this will turn out too sweet.
  • I promise--you cannot taste the Diet Coke.
