Chipotle-style Chicken

Prep: 5 min

Cook time: 16 min

Ingredients:

• 3 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless

Marinade:

• 1 tsp kosher salt

• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper

• 1 can chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, finely chopped OR 2 tsp chipotle chili powder

• 1 tsp dried oregano

• 1 tsp cumin

• 1/4 cup white vinegar

• 1 tbsp garlic powder

• 5 tbsp oil

**Vegan note: You can use firm tofu, shiitake mushrooms, Seitan, OR your choice of meatless product OR diced red and green peppers and red onions with the marinade.

Directions:

1. Pound the chicken to about 1/2-inch thick.

2. Add all the marinade ingredients together in a large Ziplock bag, mix it well together and marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

3. Remove from the marinade and add to a medium-high heat oiled pan and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side until cooked through. Take it out, let it cool, and then chop roughly.

4. Add the chopped chicken and 2 tbsp of oil to a pan and cook on medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and serve. Enjoy!

**If using a vegan alternative, marinade your substitution for at least 2 hours and cook for 10 minutes for chopped tofu or seitan; 5-8 minutes for vegetables.
