Categories     Chicken     Salsas

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 Lb. of chicken breast cut into 4 (4 oz. pieces)
Salt & pepper to season the chicken
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
3 Large Poblano peppers or 4 Small
3 Slices of white onion (about ½ of a small onion)
1 Large garlic clove (peeled)
1 Cup of heavy cream
¾ Cup milk 2% or whole
1 Tablespoon chicken bouillon powder
1 Tablespoons of butter
Salt and pepper to taste.
½ cup of corn kernels optional (I used the ones that sell frozen and thawed them)

Steps:

  • Turn on your oven-broiler to the high setting in preparation to roast the peppers, onion, and garlic. As I mentioned in my notes, you do not need to use your oven to roast the peppers and the other ingredients if you have a gas stove, you can even roast them over a regular griddle. If you use this oven version, take advantage and also use the hot oven to warm other foods.
  • Place the poblano peppers, onion slices, and garlic clove on a baking sheet covered with aluminum foil, roast for about 2 minutes per side. Remove garlic promptly since it will be ready quickly.
  • Remove from oven and lightly wrap with the aluminum foil for about 5 minutes.
  • Season chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large frying pan, once it is hot add the chicken breast to cook about 3-4 minutes per side. The cooking time will depend on the thickness of the chicken cutlets. Do not overcook, since they will keep cooking with the Poblano salsa. Remove from the frying pan, place on a plate and cover with aluminum foil.
  • Clean peppers removing the charred skins, open the peppers by making a slit from top to bottom and remove the seeds and veins. Reserve one half of one pepper and cut into small strips.
  • Place the rest of the peppers, white onion, garlic, heavy cream, milk, and chicken bouillon in your blender. Process until you have a beautiful creamy sauce.
  • Melt butter in the same frying pan, and pour the sauce. Gently simmer on a medium heat, allow cooking for 5 minutes, adding the chicken, and keep cooking for another 5-6 minutes. Keep the heat low to avoid the creamy sauce from curdling.

Tips:

  • Prep the Poblano Peppers Properly: Roasting the poblano peppers over an open flame or under a broiler adds a smoky, charred flavor to the dish. Ensure you remove the charred skin and seeds thoroughly to prevent any bitterness.
  • Don't Overcook the Chicken: Searing the chicken breasts in a skillet until golden brown creates a flavorful crust while keeping the inside moist and tender. Avoid overcooking to prevent dry, rubbery chicken.
  • Use High-Quality Cream Cheese: Opt for full-fat cream cheese for a rich, creamy sauce. Soften it to room temperature before using to ensure smooth incorporation into the sauce.
  • Add Some Heat: If you enjoy spicy dishes, incorporate a diced jalapeño pepper or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the sauce for a subtle kick.
  • Garnish for Presentation: Before serving, sprinkle some chopped fresh cilantro or parsley over the dish for a vibrant pop of color and extra flavor.

This creamy and dreamy Poblano chicken recipe is a delightful fusion of flavors and textures.
