Sun-dried Tomato Chicken

Sun-dried Tomato Chicken

POINTS values per serving | 5
Servings | 4

Main Meals | Preparation time – 10 minutes
Cooking time – 8 minutes

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

4 item boneless skinless chicken breast
1/4 tsp table salt
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 cube chicken broth, dry cubes
1/3 cup water
4 Tbsp sun-dried tomatoes, with oil, drained
1/4 cup light sour cream
1 serving olive oil cooking spray

Instructions


Combine: ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp pepper and ½ tsp chili powder and sprinkle on both sides of chicken (I like them spicy so I use more chili and pepper, not quite double).

Heat frying pan with cooking spray and cook breasts on medium high heat for 8 minutes turning once. Remove chicken and keep warm. (You can also cook the chicken on the BBQ or simply a non-stick pan and some water.)

Dissolve one chicken or veg boullion cube in 1/4 cup hot water. Cut oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes into thin strips to make 4 tbsp. You can squeeze them in paper towels or rinse to reduce the oil. Add boullion and tomato to pan, stir until liquid is reduced by half (takes about 2 minutes). Add ¼ cup low fat sour cream and cook 4 minutes more until slightly thickened. Pour over chicken and serve immediately.

Goes well with Orange Pecan salad!
