Baked Curried Chicken
Serves 4 people
- * 4 chicken skinned and deboned breasts, 6 to 8 ounces each
- 3 teaspoons Kinloch Plantation Pecan Oil
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Cajun or Creole seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon mild curry powder
- Cooking spray
- 3/4 cup chicken broth
- 1 medium-size onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium-size green bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
- 1 medium-size red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Rub the breasts with 2 teaspoons of the pecan oil and 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice. Sprinkle evenly with the seasoning mix, and curry powder. Spray a shallow baking pan with the cooking spray. Place the breasts in the pan and bake until the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. Transfer the breasts to a platter. Add the chicken broth and the remaining 1 teaspoon pecan oil to the pan and stir to loosen any browned bits. Add the onion, bell peppers, garlic, and the remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Return the pan to the oven, stirring a couple of times until the vegetables soften, 5 to 6 minutes. Place the breasts on top of the vegetables and bake for 5 minutes longer. Serve warm.
