Feeling HOT HOT HOT - Caribbean Spicy Chicken

Happy Friday Bitches! Below is a recipe post from Daffy! I will post a couple of recipes late this evening or first thing in the morning as well so that you all have some recipes for your trips to the grocery store this weekend. Remember our tips! Don't go shopping hungry! And plan, plan, plan your menus! Love! ~Zgirl

Add some spice to your palate with this diabetic friendly, low calorie, low carb, high protein chicken dinner. Certainly heats up a boring chicken breast. Easy to prepare...even for the kitchen-challenged individual!

Caribbean Spicy Chicken


Serves: 4

Spice Mixture:

½ tsp curry powder

½ tsp ground cumin

½ tsp paprika

½ tsp ground cinnamon

½ tsp nutmeg


What You Need:

4 skinless boneless chicken breasts

1 tbsp olive oil

1 cup thinly sliced red bell pepper

½ cup sliced onion

2 garlic cloves finely sliced

1 cup canned stewed tomatoes

½ cup chopped fresh parsley (fresh is better, but dried works too)

½ tsp salt

½ tsp pepper


What to do:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

In small bowl combine all spices. Season chicken with salt and pepper and coat with spice mixture. In a non-stick skillet sauté chicken in hot oil over medium-high heat 4 minutes - turning once. Add red pepper, onion, garlic and cook 1 more minute.

Stir in remaining ingredients. Cover chicken with vegetables and bake 30-35 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. (if you don’t have an oven friendly skillet, after stirring in remaining ingredients and cooking an additional minute, transfer everything to an oven safe dish, cover chicken with vegetables and bake).


**Caribbean Spicy Chicken is great paired with a side of rice…white rice or brown rice…both are great!
