Add chicken to pan; cook 4 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken, slice thinly, and keep warm. Add wine and orange juice to pan; cook until reduced and alcohol is burned off to 1/2 cup (about 4 minutes). Serve sauce over chicken.

1 Jalapeño Pepper, Seeded and Diced

3⁄4 Cup Parsley or Cilantro, Chopped

Cut the cabbage into two quarters and cut out the core. Using a knife shred each quarter into very thin slices. Cut long pieces in half. Combine the cabbage, walnuts, tomatoes, Jalapeño (optional), and cilantro or parsley in a bowl. In a separate bowl combine the lime juice, olive oil, salt. Add to the cabbage mixture and gently stir.
