Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 4 | Chicken breast halves |
| 8 | Pineapple salsa |
| 2 cups | Chicken broth |
| 1/4 cup | Flour |
| 1/8 cup | Olive oil |
| 1/2 tsp | Fresh ground white pepper |
| 1/2 tsp | Ground ginger |
| 1/4 tsp | Salt |
Instructions:
-
Prepare Chicken: Place each chicken breast half between two sheets of plastic wrap or in a plastic freezer bag, then pound them until they reach about 1/4 inch thickness. Sprinkle a little water on the chicken or plastic wrap to prevent tearing.
-
-
Prepare Coating: In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, fresh ground white pepper, ground ginger, and salt.
-
Coat Chicken: Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture until evenly coated.
-
Cook Chicken: Heat olive oil in a sautรฉ pan over medium heat. Cook each chicken breast for about 3 minutes per side, or until the meat feels firm. Keep cooked chicken warm in a covered dish while preparing the sauce.
-
Prepare Sauce: Slowly add chicken broth to the pan, being cautious of the steam. Deglaze the pan by gently scraping up any browned bits, then let the liquid simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly reduced. Stir in the pineapple salsa until you achieve a thick sauce with a lovely brownish color.
-
Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the pre-cooked chicken breasts to the pan, reducing the heat to medium-low. Turn the chicken once after 2 minutes and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
-
Serve: Remove the chicken from the pan and serve each breast with 2-3 tablespoons of the flavorful sauce drizzled over the top.
Enjoy!
