Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 pounds bone-in chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 each large white onion
  • 2 each large carrots
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 2-4 whole pickled jalapenos
  • 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth

Cooking Instructions

Combine oregano, pepper, allspice and salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle half the mixture over chicken.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken, skin-side down, and cook, turning once, until richly browned, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate, leaving behind as much oil as possible.

Add onion and carrots to the pan and cook, stirring often, until the onion is browned, about 7 minutes. Add garlic and stir until aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the remaining spice mixture, vinegar, jalapenos and broth. Nestle the chicken, skin-side up, in the onion mixture. Cover and simmer gently over medium-low heat until the chicken is just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the pieces. Serve the chicken topped with the onion mixture.

Yum!

This was really tasty and super easy to make. Some might think the jalapenos are a bit overpowering, but I liked it spicy! I served it with some chipotle roasted red potatoes and crusty bread. It was a big hit!

    This dish is seductive - exotic aromas are woven together with the browned-onion sweetness, vinegar dazzle and jalapeno fireworks. It's a Mexican classic that strikes an immediate chord with folks everywhere. Plus, it has the added benefit of being completely delicious whether served warm or cool. Serve warm when you want to huddle close to the fire. Serve cool, and you'll be looking for a place to picnic.
