Ingredients

  • 1/4 c. Safflower oil
  • 2 lb Chicken thighs, (I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts.)
  • 1 tsp Sea salt, about, ( I used kosher salt)
  • 1 lrg White onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 c. Roughly minced prunes
  • 1 c. Raisins
  • 5 x Canned chipotle chiles in adobo, roughly minced, (I didn't bother to chop.)
  • 2 can Coca Cola or possibly Pepsi Cola, (!)

Directions

  1. Last night I made dinner using which fabulous Mexican cookbook, recipe for "Chicken with Spicy Prune Sauce." This is a combination which had never crossed my mind, and now I see all sorts of possibilities using the sauce. It's mouth-wateringly delicious!
  2. Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet with a lid. Add in the chicken pcs and brown on all sides, about 10 min. Season with salt.
  3. Remove chicken, add in onion and sautee till onion becomes limp. Pour off any excess oil. Return chicken to skillet, lower the heat and cook gently for another 5 min.
  4. While the chicken is cooking, put the prunes, raisins and chipotles in a blender with some of the cola. Blend till smooth. Continue to blend in the remaining cola.
  5. Pour the prune sauce over the chicken, stir, and simmer over medium-low heat, covered, about 30 min, till the chicken is well done and the sauce thickened. Taste for seasoning and add in more salt if necessary.
  6. Remove chicken to a warm platter and pour the sauce over the chicken."
