This recipe is taken from a Pampered Chef cookbook, "Stoneware Inspirations." I think the name is a total misnomer. The recipe, however, is really tasty!- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (4-6 oz each)
- 2 limes, cut in half
- 2 egg whites
- 2 garlic cloves, pressed or finely chopped
- 1 cup finely crushed nacho cheese flavored tortilla chips (about 3 cups chips)
- 1 can (8 oz) whole green chiles, drained and cut into strips
- 4 tbsp shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 2 tsp fresh cilantro
- salsa (optional)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease pan. Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
Juice lime halves into bowl. Add egg white and pressed garlic; whisk until frothy using whisk.
Place tortilla chips in a bag and finely crush. Place crushed chips in shallow dish. Dip chicken breasts into egg mixture and then into chips, coating completely. Discard any remaining crushed chips. Place chicken on pan.
Bake 20-22 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear. Arrange chile strips over chicken; sprinkle with cheese. Bake 2-3 minutes or just until cheese melts. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with cilantro. Serve with salsa if desired.
This is what is for dinner tonight at the Simmons home, served with blackbeans mixed with a can of rotel. Enjoy!
