A Chicken Dish Every Guy Can Make
Every guy should have a few easy-to-throw-together dishes that can be made fast, cause minimum mess and will impress his guests. Here's one of my favorites.
Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 Bell Peppers (Green, Red, Yellow or Orange--it doesn't matter)
1 Large Onion
Broccoli Florets
2 Medium Yams
Worcestershire Sauce
Black Pepper
Olive Oil
Red Wine
Sea Salt
Preparation:
Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise, then slice the halves into 1" chunks. Remove the tops and the seeds from the peppers and slice them into strips. Half the onion, then cut the halves into approx. 1" sections. Clean the yams and slice into ¾" slices. Cut the Broccoli florets into aprox. 2" pieces.
Cooking:
Fill a 2 qt. pot half-way with water. Bring to a boil, add 1 tsp. salt, then add the yam slices. Boil until they can be pierced with a fork.
Add 2 Tbs. olive oil to a 12" pan over medium heat, then add the chicken . Lightly season chicken with fresh ground pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Cook chicken pieces on all sides. Cover and let simmer on low heat until cooked thoroughly, but still tender.
Add 2 Tbs. olive oil to a a 12" saute pan over medium heat, add peppers and onions. Toss gently so they cook evenly and the onions begin to become transparent. Add the broccoli and continue to toss occasionally so your mix cooks evenly. Cover and let simmer for 15 minutes, or until the ingredients start to soften a bit. Add the yams and the chicken pieces to the pan. Pour a little red wine into the chicken pan and stir it to capture the juices left in the pan. Pour this over the other ingredients, mix gently, cover and simmer over low heat until ready to serve.
Serve right from the pan. Enjoy the meal and the praise you will undoubtedly get from your guests!
