Ingredients

4 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
8 ounces tomatillos, coarsely chopped (about 3)
1 large jalapeño pepper, seeded and chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Method

  1. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Add chicken to pan; cook 6 minutes on each side or until done.
  3. While chicken cooks heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat.
