Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, about 1 1/2 pounds
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon butter
4 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup fresh or canned chicken broth
2 teaspoons tomato paste
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
2 teaspoons finely chopped parsley, optional

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the chicken breast halves with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the butter in a heavy skillet and add the breasts. Cook until browned, about 6 minutes. Turn the pieces and cook about 6 minutes longer.
  • Remove the chicken pieces to a warm platter and set aside. Add the onion and thyme to the skillet and cook briefly, stirring, until the onion is wilted. Add the vinegar and wine and bring to a boil. Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Stir in tomato paste. Cook until reduced by half and add the cream. Bring to a full rolling boil and stir in the mustard. Put sauce through a strainer, pressing to extract as much liquid as possible. There should be about 1/2 cup.
  • Spoon the sauce over the chicken pieces and garnish, if desired, with parsley. Serve immediately.

The chicken was a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the chicken for less time next time.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was tasty. I think I would add more liquid to the sauce next time.
