Steps:
- Pat chicken breasts dry and sprinkle with 1/2 the Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to the very hot oil and cook, turning occasionally, until juices run clear when chicken is pricked with a fork and both sides are browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside, reserving drippings in the skillet.
- Add green onions and bell pepper to the drippings in the skillet. Cook until tender, about 1 minute. Add chicken broth and wine and bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Simmer until juices have reduced to about 3/4 cup, about 5 minutes more. Add cream and continue to simmer to reduce slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and cilantro, plus remaining Cajun seasoning. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add chicken to the skillet, cover, and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes more.

CHICKEN CILANTRO
Don't let the color scare you! It's bright green! This is an extremely easy and tasty family recipe. Variations can definitely be made to taste...sometimes I use chicken (boneless or not)...sometimes I use shrimp...sometimes I use both. My family makes it with chicken innards (gizzards, heart, etc.) which I'm not too keen on eating. Hey, but with this soup it's to each his or her own.
