Chipotle is one of the most popular fast food restaurants in America. They have a lot of delicious food, but their chicken is especially good. Their recipe is so popular that people will often try to make it at home. This article will show you how to cook Chipotle-style chicken with this delicious recipe.
Step 1
To make this delicious meal, you’ll need:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound total)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt-free seasoning blend (like Frontier or Mrs. Dash)
Step 2
Add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add cumin, paprika, oregano, chili powder and salt; stir for 1 minute to combine.
Add chicken breast pieces (you may need to do this in batches) to hot pan; turn them over after 2 minutes on each side so both sides are cooked completely through. Remove from pan once cooked through and place on separate plate lined with paper towel or brown paper bag (this will help absorb excess moisture).
Step 3
Add the cumin, chili powder, and oregano to a small bowl. Stir together until well-mixed.
Heat a large pot over medium heat for 30 seconds or until hot enough to cook (you can test this by adding water–it should sizzle right away). Add chicken pieces and cook for 5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Remove from pan and set aside on plate.
Add tomato sauce and water to pot; stir to combine ingredients well. Return all cooked chicken pieces back into the pot with sauce mixture, along with any juices that have accumulated on your plate during cooking time; cover tightly with lid so steam doesn’t escape while cooking process occurs next stage–20 minutes!
Step 4
After 15 minutes, remove the chicken from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Slice into pieces, then serve with your favorite Chipotle tortillas, guacamole and salsa!
