Rhum and Pepper-Painted-Chicken


Title: Rhum and Pepper-Painted-Chicken
Categories: None
Yield: 4 Servings

2 c Mango-Habanero Mojo; see
-recipe
3/4 c Rhum and Pepper Paint; see
-recipe
4 Boneless chicken breast
-halves
1 tb Peanut oil
4 Lime wedges; for garnish

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Spread the paint liberally on the curved
side of the fillets (paint on the skin side). Heat a large cast-iron
skillet until almost smoking. Add the peanut oil and carefully lay the fish
in the skillet, paint or skin side down. Shake the pan a few times to
prevent the fish from sticking. Cook the fish until dark on the painted
side, about 2 minutes. Turn the fish over and drain the oil from the
skillet. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 7 to 9 minutes
(15-20 minutes for chicken).

Warm the mojo through the ladle about 1/2 cup onto each serving plate.
Remove the fish from the oven and place the fillets on top of the mojo.
Serve with the plaintains and a wedge of lime.

Note 1 eep an eye on the plantains as they get close to done, because they
will burn easily if unattended.

Note 2 nstead of chicken breast halves, OR 4 black grouper fillets (or
dolphin fish or red snapper), about 8 ounces each
