Ingredients for Bachelor S Prize Chicken

  • Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • Low Fat Plain Yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
  • Ground Red Pepper

How to Make Bachelor S Prize Chicken

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons smooth peanut butter, 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  3. Add 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound total) to the peanut sauce, ensuring each piece is fully coated. Let them marinate for at least 5 minutes.
  4. Place the marinated chicken breasts in an oven-safe dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 74°C (165°F) and the juices run clear.
  5. Serve immediately and enjoy! Garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
