Fantasy Chicken
Ingredients:
- 3 ounces of chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- ½ tsp. of olive oil
- ¼ tsp. of black pepper
- 1 tbsp. of low sodium salsa
- ½ apple, small
- ¼ tsp. of nutmeg
- 1 Tbsp. of fresh basil
- 1 Tbsp. of fresh lemon juice
Directions:
Rinse and pat dry chicken. Peel and grate apple and mix with nutmeg and lemon juice in a small bowl. (note: you may use less spice if desired.) In a nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat and sauté chicken about 3-5 min on each side or until done. Remove from pan and keep warm. In same skillet, add apple mixture And salsa, raise heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Stir in chopped basil and pepper and continue to cook for 1-2 more minutes, or until sauce is thickened. Serve chicken topped with sauce over the rice.
Rice
Ingredients:
- 3 tbsp. of uncooked rice
Directions:
Place rice in a small pot with tight-fitting lid and cover with about 2 times the amount of water (for example if you’re cooking 4 tablespoons of rice, use 8 tablespoons of water…about ½ cup of water). Bring to a boil over high heat; then cover tightly and reduce heat to medium; cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until water has been absorbed and rice is soft, but not sticky.
Enjoy!
