Berbere Spiced Chicken Breasts
One of my favorite uses for berbere spice is this chicken breast recipe. But you can use a pork chop or a piece of lamb, it's so versatile.
π Recipe adapted from AllRecipes
Season both sides of chicken breast with salt.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon berbere spice mix to coat both sides of chicken breast (see Cook's Note for recipe link).
Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until it just starts to turn brown.
Immediately transfer chicken breast to skillet; cook 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Transfer chicken to a warm dish.
Stir in lime juice, tomato paste, chicken broth, and coconut milk; stir to deglaze pan.
Bring to a simmer while stirring.
Add 1/2 teaspoon berbere spice and a pinch of salt.
Transfer chicken breast back to skillet; reduce heat to medium-low.
Cook until chicken is cooked through and sauce starts to reduce, basting chicken with pan juices as it cooks, 4 or 5 more minutes.
An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
Serve with a drizzle of the pan sauce.
