Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, peanut butter, tomato puree, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, and garlic until smooth and well combined. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to an even 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or the flat side of a heavy skillet. This ensures even cooking and tenderizes the chicken. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Transfer the pounded chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for a more intense flavor. (30 minutes - 4 hours)

04

Step

Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the used marinade. (1 minute)

06

Step

Carefully place the chicken breasts in the hot skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Pan-fry for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. A slightly charred exterior is desirable for added flavor. (12-16 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a teaspoon of grated ginger to the marinade.
If the chicken starts to stick to the pan, reduce the heat slightly and add a small amount of oil.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as rice, salad, or grilled vegetables.

    The char from the brown sugar is amazing! Be careful not to burn it, but a little char is delicious.

    These were so easy to make, and the flavor was incredible! My family loved them.

    The marinade is the key! I marinated the chicken overnight, and it was so tender and flavorful.

  • Eric Davis

    I used a grill pan instead of a skillet, and they turned out great with those nice grill marks.

  • Edd Stiedemann

    I made this for a quick weeknight dinner, and it was a hit! Definitely adding this to my regular rotation.

  • Maiya Hilll

    Next time, I'll try adding a bit of ginger to the marinade for a little extra zing.
