Ingredient Graphic
  • 1 lb.skinless, boneless chicken breast half - lightly pounded to an even thickness
  • 1 tsp kosher salt + more to taste
  • 1 tbsp + ½ tsp Healthy On You® Berbere Ann Ethiopian Spice Blend
  • 2 tsp ghee or butter
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2 tsp tomato paste
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • ⅓ cup coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp chopped cilantro

Directions

  1. Season both sides of chicken breast with salt and 1 tbsp of the Berbere Ann Spice Blend.
  2. Melt the ghee or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat, add the chicken breasts and brown for 2 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to wire rack.
  3. In the same pan, add the chicken broth, lime juice, tomato paste, and coconut milk. Stir to deglaze. Add the remaining ½ tsp Berbere Ann Spice and a pinch of salt (if needed). Bring to a simmer while gently stirring.
  4. Return chicken breast to the skillet; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until chicken is cooked through and sauce starts to reduce, 4 to 5 more minutes, basting the chicken with pan juices as it cooks. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165˚F.
  5. Serve immediately; garnish with chopped cilantro.

Skillet Chicken with Green Curry Sauce

let the good thymes roll

This is a winner chicken dinner if I ever tasted one. Its great for a weeknight meal and you can make it for two, four or six easily. I often get bored with chicken, repeating the same recipe over and over again. This recipe is different, mainly because the chicken is not cooked in the sauce, so the curry flavor is not all consuming. The fresh carrots and broccolini are steamed and then added to the pan. They add color and nutrients to the dish.
