Chicken With Goat Cheese Sauce Recipe

	Nikchick / All my dishes 1 year, 6 months ago This is a light recipe, so there is a modest amount of sauce. If you're not concerned with keeping the calories down, I highly recommend doubling the sauce ingredients as the sauce is delicious. Prep:5m Cook:25m Servings:4	Nikchick

Ingredients

/4 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth, divided

1 (3-ounce) package goat cheese, softened

4 (4-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken thighs, halved

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon butter

2 tablespoons finely chopped onion

2 tablespoons finely chopped celery

2 tablespoons finely chopped carrot

2 tablespoons finely chopped red bell pepper

1 garlic clove, minced

1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon

2 cups hot cooked rice

Directions

Combine 1 tablespoon chicken broth and cheese in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk until blended. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.

Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion, celery, carrot, bell pepper, and garlic; sauté 3 minutes. Add chicken; cook for 2 minutes. Stir in 3 tablespoons broth; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until chicken is done. (Don't give in to the temptation to cook at a higher temperature or the liquid will evaporate and things will burn.)

Stir in cheese mixture and tarragon until blended. Serve with rice.
