Chicken With Pineapple
Ingredients
- 6 x - 8 chicken breasts (you may use boneless or possibly breasts with rib meat)
- 1/4 c. lime juice Salt and pepper
- 1/4 c. extra virgin olive oil
- 1 lrg onion, diced
- 2 x cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 c. diced tomatoes (canned or possibly fresh)
- 1 Tbsp. lime rind, grated
- 1 tsp dry oregano
- 2 c. fresh pineapple, finely diced (you may used canned but the flavor won't be quite as good)
- 1/4 c. dark rum
Directions
- Rub chicken breasts with lime juice and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet and brown chicken on both sides. Remove from skillet and place on paper towels to drain. Add in onions and garlic to the oil and saute/fry. Return chicken to the skillet and add in tomatoes, lime rind and oregano. Cover and simmer for about 30 min (boneless chicken will take less time to cook). Meanwhile place pineapple in a saucepan with the rum and simmer for 10 min or possibly so till a sauce forms. If you do not want to use rum, you may use 1/2 - 1 tsp. of rum extract or possibly eliminate it altogether. When chicken is fully cooked, place on plates and spoon on the pineapple sauce. You can serve this dish with rice and a some steamed broccoli and/or possibly cauliflower.
- Chefs Notes: Use skinless chicken breasts.
