Chicken Breasts With Leeks, Lime, And Zucchini
Submitted by: Jimmy
 This is a great dinner dish because the whole meal is in 1 recipe.

INGREDIENTS:
  • 4 large , Zucchini Jullianed
  • 1/2 cup(s) , Olive Oil
  • 1 cup(s) , Flour
  • 8 large , Chicken Breast Halves Skinless
  • 1 1/4 teaspoon(s) , Salt and Pepper
  • 3 cup(s) , Leeks Sliced Thin
  • 1 tablespoon(s) , Garlic Chopped
  • 1/2 cup(s) , Dry White Wine
  • 3/4 cup(s) , Chicken Broth
  • 1 tablespoon(s) , Lime Zest
  • 3 tablespoon(s) , Lime Juice
  • 2 tablespoon(s) , Fresh Parsley Minced
  • 3 tablespoon(s) , Sundried Tomatoes Sliced Thin

Instructions:
Pat zucchini dry and toss with 2
tablespoons of the olive oil. Season lightly with salt
and pepper and set aside.

Lightly flour chicken breasts and shake off excess.
Season with salt and pepper. Add 2 tablespoons of
olive oil to an oven proof saute pan and lightly brown
on both sides. Remove from pan and set aside. Add
remaining oil, leeks and garlic and saute over
moderate heat for 3 - 4 minutes or until vegetables
are just beginning to soften. Add wine and stock and
cook over moderate heat for 3 - 4 minutes to reduce
liquid slightly.

Return chicken to pan and place some of the leeks
mixture on top of breasts. Season lightly and sprinkle
lime zest, juice, parsley and sundried tomatoes over
and around breasts. Place pan uncovered in a preheated
400 degree oven and bake for 5 - 7 minutes or until
breasts are just done.

Halfway through the baking of the breasts, place the
zucchini on a separate baking sheet and bake until
zucchini just begins to soften.

To serve: Arrange zucchini attractively on warm plates
and top with breasts and vegetables. Drizzle pan
juices over.
