Equipment
- 1 pan
- 1 Knife
- 1 plastic bag
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breasts
- 3/4 cup mexican crema
- 1 can corn kernels
- 3 pieces poblano peppers You can use Chile chilaca instead of poblano.
- 1 tsp chicken bouillon
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cooking oil
- 1/4 cup of milk
- 2 cloves of garlic
Instructions
- Begin by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips.
- Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken strips to the skillet. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
- Seal the chicken on both sides and then cover until fully cooked; it can take around 12 minutes, depending on the thickness of your chicken.
- Add the poblano peppers and corn kernels to the skillet with the chicken. Stir well to combine.
- You can use Chile chilaca instead of poblano. If you want to take this to another level add 1/4 package of cream cheese for more texture and flavor.
- Turn off the heat, and add the Mexican crema (or sour cream), milk, and chicken bouillon to the skillet. Quickly mix all the ingredients to prevent the sour cream from curdling.
- Once everything is well combined and the sauce is at an even temperature, return the skillet to medium-low heat and cook for 4 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Do not let it boil if the cream can curdle.
