Chicken Breasts with Chipotle Green Onion Gravy
This surprisingly simple chicken dish is served with a flavorful chipotle and green onion gravy.
Ingredients
- 2 halves Chicken breast
- to taste Salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 3⁄4 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Green onions
- 1⁄2 teaspoon Chipotle chile powder
Steps
- Place chicken breast halves between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/2-inch. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet on high heat until it begins to shimmer, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium; cook chicken breasts until browned and no longer pink inside, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer cooked chicken to a warm plate and loosely cover with aluminum foil.
- Melt butter in the skillet; stir in flour and cook for about 2 minutes. Stir in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan; cook and stir until gravy begins to simmer and thicken, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Stir in green onions and chipotle chile powder.
- Return chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes.
