Do you ever get tired of chicken? I do. There must be a million ways to make it, but I seem to hover around the same ones. Since deciding to change my diet up a few months ago, eliminating gluten and dairy, I’ve noticed how often chicken recipes and sauces include those items. I was thrilled to find this fabulously yummy chicken dish not long ago. So glad I finally got around to trying it. A new favorite in my chicken repertoire for sure!
The recipe is a Rick Bayless recipe found on myrecipes.com. It is a delicious low calorie meal high in fiber and protein. It is gluten free, dairy free and sugar free. Easy to follow and loved by most of my family. If 4 out of 5 like it, I consider that a success!
The best part about this meal was that I had pretty much every ingredient already in my kitchen. You might too. I made a couple minor adjustments, apologies to the chef, but I had to work with what was on hand – keeping it simple. I substituted the white vinegar for apple cider vinegar (on an apple cider kick lately) and the pickled jalapeños for 1/2 of a fresh jalapeño seeded and finely diced. You could use canned green chiles if you don’t have a fresh. I also added more broth than what the recipe calls for and served it over brown rice to please my crowd.
Super deelish. Super healthy. Super simple.
My kinda meal!

I’ll have to try this, Domonique! It looks delicious. Rick Bayless can do no wrong in my mind – he’s a Chicagoan, you know (:
