Chicken Breasts with Peanut Sauce

Now that I know the jar of peanut butter I’ve had for months is safe, I’ve decided this is what we’re having for dinner tonight. I haven’t made it in awhile. Based on my old note, I’ll spice it up a bit. I do remember it being extremely easy to make.

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 medium skinless, boneless chicken-breast halves
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper

Cooking Instructions:

In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until very hot. Add chicken breasts and cook 7 to 10 minutes until juices run clear when pierced with tip of knife, turning once. Transfer chicken to warm platter.

Stir peanut butter, soy sauce, vinegar, and 2/3 cup water into drippings in skillet; stir until smooth and heated through. Pour sauce over chicken on platter.

Additional Comments:

I just had to try this recipe because it was so different. I used red wine vinegar (didn’t have the white). If you like spicy Chinese dishes, I would suggest doubling the red pepper–we couldn’t taste it in the sauce. Very very easy recipe to make!
