Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 Skinless boneless chicken breasts
1 medium Onion; finely chopped
1 cup Low-sodium chicken broth
1 Clove garlic; minced
1 15-oz can peeled and sliced tomatoes; undrained
⅓ cup Dark or golden raisins
¼ cup Cilantro; finely chopped

1. Place the chicken breasts in a pan and cover with water. Bring just to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer about 10 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove from the water and cool slightly. Shred. 2. In a medium-sized pan set over medium heat, saute the onion in 2 tablespoons of the broth until softened, about 4 to 5 minutes. Uncover and add the garlic, tomatoes, raisins, cilantro, chili powder, cocoa powder, salt, sugar, cinnamon, cumin and peanut butter. Simmer 5 minutes. Add the remaining broth and simmer 15 minutes. 3. Stir in the shredded chicken and lime juice. Heat through on medium-low heat until hot. Spoon over rice and serve with lime wedges.
