Ingredients

  • 4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
  • 4 (5-6 oz.) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 cup onion, finely diced
  • 3 medium jalapeños, seeds and membranes removed, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 4 oz. cream cheese (I use 1/3 less fat)
  • 1 heaping cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Heat 2 teaspoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, season chicken breasts with the salt, pepper, chili powder and cumin. Add to pan and sear for 4 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
  2. Remove chicken breasts from the skillet to a plate and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm. (They will finish cooking later.)
  3. Reduce heat to medium and add remaining two teaspoons olive oil to pan.
  4. Add diced onion and jalapeño and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes, until softened. Add garlic and saute for 30 more seconds.
  5. Add chicken broth and cream cheese and stir until melted. Stir in shredded cheddar cheese and stir until melted and mixture is simmering.
  6. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, along with any accumulated juices, and turn to coat in the cheese sauce.
  7. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 7-9 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. (It will depend on how thick your chicken breasts are.) I like to spoon some of the sauce over the chicken breasts halfway through the cooking time.
  8. Serve chicken breasts with extra sauce spooned over the top, and enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup chickpea flour also called garbanzo bean flour (120 g)
