Crunchy Garlic Chipotle Chicken Strips

We love this recipe! Intense flavor!  Sweet, very spicy, and crunchy! These are not your mother's chicken strips.  We paired this recipe with a brown rice/quinoa mixture and a kale salad.













Ingredients:
1 lb. chicken breasts, cut into strips
1-2 tsps Ms. Dash Southwest Chipotle seasoning blend
1/3 cup oil
2 tbsps Embassa chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (chopped)
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp vinegar
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
4-5 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 medium onion, coarsely chopped
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
Cilantro for garnish

Directions:
In medium bowl, mix chipotle peppers, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, ketchup, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.  In large skillet, saute' chopped onions in oil, then add ketchup mixture and heat until mixture starts to thicken.  Remove from skillet.  Heat oil in skillet, then add chicken strips.  Season chicken strips with Ms. Dash.  Saute' until cooked through (about 10 minutes) then add sauce and continue to cook for about another 5-7 minutes until sauce is caramelized. Transfer to serving dish.  Add 1 tbsp oil to small sauce pan and heat oil, then add diced garlic.  Fry garlic until it turns golden brown.  Remove from pan and top chicken strips with crunchy garlic, garnish with fresh cilantro.
