Chicken Marengo Z3 Version

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe.

Prep Time: 20 minutes.

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Servings: 4 Servings

Ingredients:

• 3 large chicken cutlets, sliced into thin paillards (slice while partially frozen)
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
• olive oil spray
• 1 medium sweet onion, sliced
• 1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced
• 1 red or yellow bell pepper, seeded and julienned
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 (14-ounce) can chopped tomatoes

Instructions:

Season the chicken with salt and pepper, to taste.

Spray a large non-stick sauté pan, and heat to medium-high heat and add the chicken. Brown on both sides, until nice and golden, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate. In the same pan, add the onions, mushrooms and peppers and sauté until softened and fragrant, but not limp, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Stir in the tomato paste and cook a few minutes to cook out the raw flavor. Turn up the heat, and add ½ cup of the beef broth to deglaze the pan and let it reduce for 2 or 3 minutes. Add the remaining ½ cup beef broth and the tomatoes. Once the mixture begins to bubble, add the browned paillards and any juices from the chicken and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until the chicken is warmed through, about 3 minutes.

Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
