Poaching the chicken breasts in a mango and spice mixture gives this simple chicken recipe tons of added flavor. The cooking liquid doubles as a simple sauce with the addition of cornstarch. The entire recipe takes less than 30 minutes to prepare. Ingredients:
4 frozen boned, skinned chicken breast halves (about 8 oz. each) |
1 1/4 cups mango nectar |
1 cup fat-skimmed chicken broth |
1/4 cup lime juice |
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
salt |
Directions:
1. Place chicken in an 11- to 12-inch frying pan. Add mango nectar, broth, lime juice, ginger, and cinnamon. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer until meat is no longer pink in center of thickest part (cut to test), 15 to 20 minutes total. Transfer chicken to a platter and keep warm.
2. Boil pan juices over high heat, uncovered, until reduced to 1 cup, about 5 minutes. Mix cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water, pour into sauce, and stir until boiling. Pour over chicken. Add salt to taste.
