This is an easy but delicious meal from the Los Barrios Family Cookbook. The restaurant, Los Barrios, is one of San Antonio's true gems. This is a recipe which I was lucky enough to adopt, have made it numerous times and love it. Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion |
2 garlic cloves |
1 tablespoon salt |
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature |
1 cup milk |
4 canned chipotle chiles |
salt and pepper |
paprika (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Put the chicken breasts, onion, garlic cloves and 1 Tablespoon of salt in large pot and add water to cover.
2. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook 20 minutes. Drain well.
3. While chicken is cooking, preheat the oven to 325 degrees Farenheit and grease a 9x13 baking dish.
4. Combine the cream cheese, milk, chiles and salt and blend well, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
5. NOTE: If you're not sure how much heat you want in your sauce, start with one or two of the chipotles, and taste the sauce.
6. Place the chicken in the baking dish and pour the sauce over the top.
7. Sprinkle with paprika and bake 20 minutes.
