SANTA FE (FAY) CHICKEN



Santa Fe (Fay) Chicken image

Picked up this recipe from an Oprah Show I watched. Tried it and made it my own. I have marinated this dish from 24 hours to just a few minutes but love it anyway. It somehow feels like it is Indian. Maybe the spices give it that effect.

Provided by Girl from India

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 limes, juice of
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin powder
1 1/2 teaspoons coriander powder
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
2 whole boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup white wine (I use rum and water combo or stock and rum)
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl well.
  • Pour into a shallow baking pan and lay the chicken breasts in.
  • Cover and refrigerate for one hour (to even 2 days. But I would advise that if you are keeping it for over an hour or two do not add the lime juice to it. Add it a couple of hours prior to cooking it.) Preheat the broiler.
  • After one hour, when the chicken has absorbed all the flavors of the marinade, pour in the white wine and the chopped cilantro.
  • Broil the chicken under a medium flame for 8 to 10 minutes, basting it with the juices to keep it moist.
  • Serve it in the pan juices.
  • P.S. You can bake(at 180C) and pan grill this too with equally good results.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and tools you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables and herbs will give your stir-fry the best flavor. If you can, buy them from a local farmer's market or organic grocery store.
  • Cut your vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you put too much food in the pan, it will steam instead of stir-fry. Cook the food in batches if necessary.
  • Use a high-quality oil: A good stir-fry oil should have a high smoke point, such as grapeseed oil, avocado oil, or sesame oil.
  • Stir-fry over high heat: This will help the food cook quickly and evenly.
  • Don't overcook the food: Stir-fries should be cooked quickly, so don't let the food sit in the pan for too long.
  • Add the sauce at the end: This will help prevent the sauce from burning.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served hot and fresh.
