Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts, (about 2 pounds)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp parsley
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp basil
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
- ¼ cup chicken broth
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- 1 small shallot, (minced, about ¼ cup)
- 2 tbsp minced garlic, (5-6 cloves)
Instructions
- prep
- Prepare the chicken breasts by pounding them with a meat tenderizer until they are uniformly about 1.5 inches thick.
- season
- Mix the salt, parsley, oregano, basil, and pepper in a small bowl and rub the chicken breasts with the dried herbs.
- sear
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook, undisturbed for 4-5 minutes, until a golden crust has formed. Flip the chicken and repeat on the other side.
- saute
- Remove the chicken from the pan. Add in the white wine vinegar, chicken broth, butter, and shallot. Saute until the shallot is tender, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic to the pan and saute for another 2-3 minutes.
- baste
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the chicken back to the pan. Coat each breast with the sauce mixture. Continue basting the breasts with the sauce until the chicken is cooked through. Flip the chicken after 5 minutes to evenly cook.
- serve
- Remove the pan from heat and serve the chicken fresh with the sauce spooned over the top.
