Yummy recipe that I made for dinner tonight. I am watching my calories and so this is a Weight Watcher recipe!
Ingredients:
2 t olive oil
6 (1/4 lb.) chiken breast halves, it didn't say so I used boneless/skinless
1 Lg onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped and seeded
1/2 t ground cumin
1/2 t curry powder
1/2 t dried oregano
1/4 t crushed red pepper
1 C reduced sodium chicken broth
1/2 (6 oz can) tomato paste
1/4 Cup reduced fat peanut butter, OK, I used the regular Skippy.
2 t lemon juice
3 C hot cooked white rice
3 T chopped dry roasted peanuts
1-Heat the oil in a nonstick Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add the chicken and cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes on each side. Tranfer to a plate.
2-Add the ohnion and garlic to the Dutch oven and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 7 minutes. Add the bell pepper, cumin, curry powder, oregano, and crushed red pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant , about 2 minutes.
3-Add the broth and tomato paste; bring to a boil, stirring to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the chicken. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
4-Combine the peanut butter with some of the liquid from the Dutch oven; mix to form a smooth paste. Stir the peanut butter mixture into the Dutch oven and bring to a simmer , stirring constantly. Stir in the lemon juice. Serve with the rice and sprinkle with the peanuts.
We both liked this very much....fyi, one chicken breast with rice and 1/2 cup of sauce is 8 points WW.
