Cook Time: 30 mins
Ingredients
- Servings: 4
- 1 1/2 lbs chicken tenders
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 bulb of garlic (4 to 6 cloves, pressed, to taste)
- 2 onions, sliced
- 4 -8 jalapeno peppers, sliced (seeded and deveined, wear gloves, if you skip deveining and deseeding it will be too hot)
- 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 1 -1 1/2 tablespoon chili powder (to taste)
- 1/2-1 teaspoon cumin (to taste)
- 1/2-1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
Recipe
- 1 brown chicken tenders in a little olive oil over medium heat. do not overcook! cook until just fork tender. add garlic, chili powder, salt and cook a minute more. remove from skillet.
- 2 add onions to skillet and cook until just carmelized. about 5 to 10 minutes.
- 3 add peppers and tomatoes and cook for 3 or 4 minutes to soften peppers and reduce tomatoes.
- 4 add chicken combination back to pan with accumulated juices and just reheat. add a tiny bit of water if you need the moisture to combine the flavors.
- 5 adjust seasonings. if you started with 1 tablespoon chili powder and 1/2 tsp cumin, you might want to sprinkle a little more over until it tastes right to you. if you started with 1/2 tsp salt, see if you want a little more.
- 6 fresh cilantro is delicious in this. a squeeze of fresh lime is yummy if you have it.
