• Serves: 6

ingredients

• Seasoning Mix

• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 teaspoons dry mustard
• 2 teaspoons ground turmeric
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 2 teaspoons dried ancho chile powder
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon ground allspice
• 3⁄4 teaspoon onion powder
• 3⁄4 teaspoon white pepper
• 1⁄2 teaspoon cayenne

• 6 (5 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breast halves
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 1⁄2 cups chopped onions
• 1⁄2 cup cane syrup
• 1⁄4 cup finely diced fresh jalapeno pepper
• 2 cups heavy cream

directions

1. Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl.
2. Sprinkle the chicken evenly with 2 Tablespoons of the seasoning mix. Rub it in well.
3. The turmeric in the seasoning mix turns the chicken a pretty golden color.
4. Heat the oil in a heavy 5-quart pot over high heat just until the oil begins to smoke, about 4 minutes.
5. Brown the chicken in batches, about 3 minutes on each side, then remove from the pot.
6. Add the onions to the pot and cook, stirring and scraping the pot frequently, for 8 minutes.
7. Stir in the syrup, jalapeno peppers, heavy cream, and remaining seasoning mix and scrape the pot bottom thoroughly to loosen all the brown bits.
8. Return the chicken and the accumulated juices to the pot and push it into the sauce.
9. Bring just to a boil, reduce the heat to low, then cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is done, about 15 minutes.
10. Serve hot.

This recipe was delish...sweet yet spicy it almost taste like an East Indian dish...

This was good. We'll have it again. But with so many spices, we'd kind of expected more. The sauce was good, but not complex - the flavors all kind of blended together.

All I can say is WOW. I've been a fan of Chef Paul for quite a while, but I had never tried this dish. It is stellar! I just wish I could go higher than 5 stars. Thanks for the post, Sharon123. I know how time consuming it can be to type in one of his recipes!

Excellent!!!! Rich, flavorful and creamy! I used low fat milk. I was a bit surprised with the amount of spices that goes into this recipe. After mixing and coating the chicken with the 2 tablespoons you would not think it would need any more But this is so good so don`t hesitate and add it all! I`m recalling 1/2 a cup of spices. Thanks!
