This is a wonderful dinner that my mom and I came up with while trying to cook a seafood supper for the men. This meal is very delish and warming of the tummy. Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in half and trimmed |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 tablespoon chopped onion |
1 teaspoon chopped fresh garlic |
1 cup chicken broth |
4 tablespoons butter |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
1 cup milk |
1 tablespoon lime juice |
2 tablespoons tomato paste |
1/2 cup chicken broth |
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves |
2 ounces small, cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined |
Directions:
1. Place chicken breasts on a cutting board, and pound thin with a mallet.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in onions and garlic. Place chicken in skillet and brown on both sides. Add 1 cup chicken broth, reduce heat to medium low; cover, and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
3. Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Gradually stir in flour, stirring until smooth. Increase heat to medium, and cook briefly until thickened. Stir in milk, lime juice, and tomato paste; cook until it begins to thicken, about 25 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup chicken broth to thin sauce, and warm through. Remove from heat, and stir in rosemary and shrimp.
4. To serve, remove chicken, onions, and garlic to plates with a slotted spoon, and top with sauce.
