Cilantro-Bell Chicken

Posted by on Mar 20, 2012 in Dinner | 2 Comments

I had some leftover cubed chicken from Eat Like a Dinosaur’s Fool’s Gold, and decided to have some fun with it. The result was an awesome surprise of flavor!

Recipe: Cilantro-Bell Chicken (serves 2–can easily be modified to feed more!)

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed

1 bell pepper

1/4 cup cilantro

2 TBSP fresh parsley

1 clove garlic

salt to taste

few tablespoons olive oil for frying + a few more for marinating chicken

Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, combine bell pepper, cilantro, garlic, parsley and salt in a food processor and pulse until minced well. Put chicken in a bowl, pour a few tablespoons olive oil in, and add cilantro mixture. Stir together to combine. Let marinate for a few minutes, or if you want to put in the fridge to marinate longer, feel free. Just make sure you turn your burner off! Making sure the minced spices stick a bit on the chicken, place each piece of chicken in heated skillet with tongs. Let cook 3-4 minutes, flip over and cook another 2-3 minutes, until cooked through. Serve.
