How to Make Abba's Chipotle Chicken

  1. In a gallon-size zipper-top bag, combine all ingredients (except chicken) and seal.
  2. Shake the bag vigorously to ensure spices are evenly distributed.
  3. Cut 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1/2-inch wide strips.
  4. Add the chicken strips to the bag and shake until fully coated.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight for deeper flavor).
  6. Heat a large cast iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  7. Add the chicken strips to the hot skillet in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and cooked through. (Internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  8. Serve immediately over a bed of your favorite southwest rice (we recommend recipe #127366) or a crisp salad. Garnish with fresh cilantro or lime wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
