Every Sunday I make 8-10 chicken breasts.. Seems like a lot but we eat chicken almost every night of the week. It’s easy & healthy. I try to think of new ways to jazz up the meat.. sometimes we just eat it plain but that cannot be done every night.. unless we want to go crazy!
Monday night was one of the nights where I needed to get creative. Work was busy.. and I wanted to take my mind off that & keep my mind busy in the kitchen!
Here is what I came up with… It may not be pretty, but it’s tasty!
Paleo Spicy Tomato Chicken
-8 oz chicken, precooked
-3 T tomato paste
-2 T Paleo worcestershire sauce (recipe at the bottom)
-2 T honey
-1 sprig of fresh rosemary, chopped
-1/8 t cayenne
-red pepper flakes (I probably used 1T)
How Ya Do It
1. Preheat broiler on high.
2. Combine tomato paste, worcestershire sauce, honey, rosemary, cayenne, and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Wisk together to combine.
3. Cut chicken into strips and lay out on a broiler safe, nonstick pan.
4. Brush about 2/3 of the sauce on the chicken.
5. Put chicken in oven for 4 minutes.
6. Brush remaining sauce on the chicken and broil for 4 more minutes.
7. Wa-la!

Enjoy!

OMG!! That looks mouth-gasmic!!! I have been on a HUGE chicken kick lately!! I honestly have eaten like 10 whole chickens in the past 2 weeks! You’d think I were pregnant with quadruplets! I really love just getting chicken when I go out to eat – I cannot make Chicken good at all! Fajitas… Mmmmm! ๐
I love chicken, too!!! Try this sauce on it–you can’t go wrong!
I am thinking that I need to give this recipe a try, but with tempeh or tofu. The seasonings sound awesome!
I definitely think it would be great on either one you choose.. The sauce will blow your mind ๐
This sounds sooooo good!!! I am definitely going to have to make a big batch of that Worcestershire Sauce! It’s one of my favorite condiments! ๐
Yes! The sauce was so easy to make.. and I am now storing some in my fridge for later use.
I love spicy and I love chicken so this recipe is great for me. I will have to remember this.
Try it! I promise you’ll like it–and it’s simple to make.
we love all things spicy!! in fact, I just spooned horseradish. Yup
Horseradish–YUM! When I drink bloody marys–I UP the horseradish. I love the burn!
