Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • four 4-ounce boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 small vidalia onion, halved lengthwise and sliced thinly
  • 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon thyme, chopped, or to taste
  • 2 teaspoon salted butter
Directions
  1. On a plate, combine the flour, ½ teaspoon of the salt, and ¼ teaspoon of the pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and turn to coat. Shake off any excess.
  2. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, flipping once, until golden and cooked through, about 7 minutes. Remove to a serving plate and cover to keep warm.
  3. Add the onion to the skillet and sauté until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Add the broth, vinegar, thyme, and remaining salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and cook until the onions are tender, stirring often, about 5 minutes.
  4. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the butter until melted. Spoon the sauce over the chicken.
