Ingredients:
4 chicken breast halves (about 10 oz. each), skinned |
2 tablespoons salted red achiote paste (see note above) |
1 can (14 1/2 oz.) crushed tomatoes |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger |
1 tablespoon minced garlic |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon teaspoon pepper |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 green bell pepper (8 oz.), rinsed, stemmed, seeded, and chopped |
1 onion (8 oz.), peeled and chopped |
Directions:
1. Rinse chicken and pat dry. Rub achiote paste all over chicken. In a bowl, mix tomatoes, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, thyme, salt, cumin, oregano, and pepper; add chicken and turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 3 hours or up to 1 day. 2. Pour oil into a 10- to 12-inch frying pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add bell pepper and onion and stir often until limp, about 10 minutes. 3. Add chicken and its marinade to pan and bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink at the bone (cut to test), about 10 minutes. With tongs, transfer chicken to a wide, shallow serving bowl; pour sauce over chicken. |
