Chipotle Chicken Skillet Casserole Recipe
Chipotle Chicken Skillet Casserole
Chipotle peppers are smoked, dried jalapeño peppers. Using cayenne chipotle sauce (which is available in the condiment section of most grocery stores) adds a deep spicy flavour to this dish.
Ingredients
- 3 oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
- ¼ cup (50 mL) loosely packed coriander leaves
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) cayenne chipotle sauce or 1 tbsp (15 mL) each barbecue and hot sauce
- 1 tsp (5 mL) chili powder
- 1 tsp (5 mL) finely grated lime peel
- 1 tsp (5 mL) vegetable oil
- 2 lbs (1 kg) skinless boneless chicken thighs
- ½ tsp (2 mL) each salt and pepper
- 1 large onion, peeled and sliced thinly
- 1 green pepper, chopped
Preparation
Pat excess oil from tomatoes using paper towel. Combine tomatoes, coriander leaves, chipotle sauce, chili powder and lime peel in a blender or mini chopper. Blend, adding up to 1/4 cup (50 mL) water, until smooth. Reserve.
Heat oil in a non-stick skillet set over medium-high heat. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towel and sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper. Place in pan and brown on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from pan and add onion. Reduce heat to medium.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add green pepper and mix to combine. Return chicken and its juices to pan, placing on top of vegetables.
Spread chipotle mixture over chicken, using the back of a spoon. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in the centre.
Makes 4 servings.
