Margarita Braised Chicken Thighs

 

Ingrediants:

1/2 cup flour (about 2 1/4 ounces)

1 tablespoon paprika

2 teaspoons garlic powder

8 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 1 1/2 pounds)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon olive oil

Cooking spray

1 cup onion, thinly sliced (about 1 medium)

5 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 cup dried tropical fruit

1/2 cup orange juice

1/4 cup tequila

1 lime, thinly sliced

 

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Combine first 3 ingredients in a small baking dish. Sprinkle

chicken with salt; dredge chicken in flour mixture.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add

chicken to pan; cook 4 minutes on each side or until lightly

browned. Transfer chicken to an 11 x 7-inch baking dish coated

with cooking spray. Add onion to skillet; cook 3 minutes. Add

garlic to pan, and sauté 1 minute.

Combine fruit, juice, and tequila in a microwave-safe dish, and

microwave at high 2 minutes. Pour fruit mixture into pan; bring

to a boil, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Cook 1 minute.

Pour onion mixture over chicken; top with lime slices. Bake at

400 degrees F for 20 minutes or until chicken is done.
