Menu Planner Menu Planner   CHICKEN WITH CURRIED PEARS  

 
INGREDIENTS

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed of fat (1-1¼ pounds total)
1/4 tsp. salt, plus more to taste
1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper, plus more to taste
3 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil or canola oil, divided
2 pears, peeled, cored and thickly sliced
1/4 c. finely chopped shallots
1 tsp. curry powder
1/2 c. dry white wine
1/2 c. reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 tbsp. unsweetened coconut milk
1 tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
1 tbsp. chopped fresh mint
RECIPE

  • Season chicken on both sides with ¼ teaspoon each of salt and pepper.
  • Heat 1½ teaspoons oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the chicken and cook until well browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining 1½ teaspoons oil to pan. Add pears, shallots, and curry powder. Cook, stirring, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add wine and broth; bring to a simmer. Cook until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
  • Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to pan; reduce heat to low. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 4 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken to a warmed platter.
  • Stir coconut milk, cilantro, and mint into the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper and spoon over chicken.
