Steps:
- 1. Prepare the tomato sauce. Reserve in the pan off heat. Cut the cactus strips into 1/2-inch pieces. Rinse well. 2. In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and cook the onion, stirring, until it starts to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, reserved cactus and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Reserve off heat. 3. Brush the chicken with the remaining olive oil and season with the remaining salt and pepper. Heat a stove top grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken about 4 to 5 minutes per side or until well marked from the grill, firm to the touch, and no longer pink inside at the thickest part. 4. To serve, reheat the tomato sauce and cactus. Divide the cactus evenly among 4 serving plates and place 1 chicken breast on top of each serving. Spoon some of the heated tomato sauce over each chicken breast. Sprinkle with cheese. Serve hot. Pass remaining sauce at the table.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore.
