Breast Of Chicken Oaxaca
- Chipotle sauce:
- 1/4 cup hot water
- 1/2 teaspoon chicken-flavored bouillon granules
- 4 canned chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
- 3/4 cup low-fat sour cream
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- Chicken:
- 1 peeled avocado, cut into 6 wedges
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 6 (4-ounce) skinned, boned chicken breast halves
- 3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded asadero or Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 large egg whites, lightly beaten
- 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Cooking spray
- 8 cups hot cooked linguine (about 1 pound uncooked pasta)
- 1/4 cup sliced ripe olives
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- To prepare chipotle sauce, combine first 3 ingredients in a blender; process until smooth. Pour sauce into a bowl; stir in sour cream and 1 tablespoon juice.
- To prepare chicken, toss avocado with 1 tablespoon juice. Cut a horizontal slit through thickest portion of each breast half to form a pocket. Stuff 1 avocado slice and 2 tablespoons cheese into each pocket. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper, and dredge chicken in flour. Dip chicken in egg whites; dredge in breadcrumbs.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add chicken; saute 6 minutes on each side or until chicken is done.
- Toss pasta with olives and parsley. Place 1 1/3 cups pasta on each of 6 plates. Arrange chicken on pasta; top each serving with about 3 tablespoons chipotle sauce.
