Moroccan-Spiced Chicken<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I was flipping through my November Issue of Chatelaine and came upon this recipe in the “it’syourhealth” section on page 155. I had just taken boneless, skinless chicken breasts out of the freezer with absolutely no idea what I was going to make with it. I was only missing the oranges called for in this recipe but did have a can of mandarin oranges in the pantry. I also subbed in a can of coconut milk for the milk.<\/p>\n

The husband says the chicken was delicious! I wouldn’t know as I remain a Vegetarian … I rely on smell, A LOT, and I grill the husband about taste, texture, presentation…I usually get, “It was….tasty, very tasty.” <- A quasi quote from\u00a084 Charing Cross Road<\/em><\/p>\n

2 teaspoons Butter
\n1 Onion, sliced
\n1 teaspoon each: Paprika, ground Cumin, Dried Mint
\n1\/4 teaspoon ground Cinnamon
\nSalt and Pepper, to taste
\n1 lb skinless, boneless Chicken Breast, cut into strips
\n1\/3 cup chopped Dried Apricots and\/or Raisins
\n2 cups Coconut Milk (or milk)
\n2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
\n1 can Mandarin Orange slices, drained<\/p>\n

In large non-stick skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
\nSaute onion, paprika, cumin, mint, cinnamon, salt and pepper until onion is softened.
\nAdd chicken; saute for 3 minutes.
\nAdd dried fruit.
\nWhisk a small amount of coconut milk into cornstarch, until smooth; whisk in remaining coconut milk.
\nStir into skillet.
\nSimmer, stirring, until chicken is no longer pink inside, 4 – 5 minutes.
\nTop with mandarin orange slices.
\nServe over a bed of Brown Rice or Whole Wheat Couscous with a Green Vegetable.<\/p>\n

Serves 4<\/p>\n
