 Ingredients

 Relish

  • 3 strips bacon, diced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 can (4.5 ounce) chopped green chilies
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
 

 Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup tortilla chip crumbs
  • 1 egg white, beaten with 1 T. water
  • 2 tsp. vegetable oil
 

 


Cooking Directions

In medium saucepan, sauté bacon over medium-low heat until just crisp. Add onion; cook until lightly browned, about seven minutes. Stir in tomatoes and green chilies; cook for three minutes more. Sprinkle salt and pepper into dish; stir. Remove from heat, cover and set aside. Between two sheets of plastic wrap, place chicken breasts. Pound with meat hammer to 1/4-inch thickness. Place flour in pie plate or other flat dish. Place egg white in shallow bowl. Place tortilla chip crumbs in third bowl. Dip each chicken breast first into flour, patting off excess, then into egg. Finish by coating with crumbs. In large, non-stick skillet, warm oil over high heat. Add chicken and brown each side, turning after about three minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; continue to cook chicken until firm, about five more minutes on each side. To serve, place chicken on platter. Warm the relish and spoon on top of chicken.
