Recipe Adàpted from --> www.allrecipes.com



INSTRUCTIONS :


  1. First, heàt 2 teàspoons of the olive oil in à làrge skillet over medium-high heàt.
  2. Then, seàson chicken breàsts with the sàlt ànd pepper. àdd to pàn ànd seàr for 4 minutes on eàch side, until golden brown.
  3. Remove chicken breàsts from the skillet to à plàte ànd cover with àluminum foil to keep wàrm. (They will finish cooking làter.)
  4. Then, reduce heàt to medium ànd àdd remàining two teàspoons olive oil to the pàn.
  5. Next, àdd diced onion ànd cook, stirring occàsionàlly, for 4-5 minutes, until softened. àdd gàrlic ànd chipotle peppers ànd sàute for 30 more seconds.
  6. àdd àdobo sàuce, chicken broth, ànd creàm cheese ànd stir until melted.
  7. Return the chicken breàsts to the skillet, àlong with àny àccumulàted juices, ànd turn to coàt in the sàuce.
  8. After thàt, cover the pàn, reduce the heàt to medium-low ànd cook for 7-9 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. (It will depend on how thick your chicken breàsts àre.) I like to spoon some of the sàuce over the chicken breàsts hàlfwày through the cooking time.
  9. Once the chicken is cooked through, turn off heàt ànd stir in Greek yogurt. Seàson to tàste with sàlt ànd pepper.
  10. Finàlly, serve chicken breàsts with extrà sàuce spooned over the top, ànd enjoy!
