Ingredients
8 chicken breasts, boned and skinned
2-3 Tbs. flour
1 Tbs. salt
1 Tbs. fresh ground pepper
2-4 Tbs. olive oil
1 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced
4 cloves garlic, pressed/minced
½ cup balsamic vinegar
½ cup chicken broth
1 bay leaf
1 sprig fresh rosemary
1 sprig fresh thyme
1 Tbs. flour (add 2 Tbs. cold water)
1 Tbs. butter
4-6 cup cooked long grain rice
Preparation
Combine flour, salt, and pepper, then dredge the chicken pieces in the mixture. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the coated chicken and brown well on 1 side (2-3 minutes). Turn the chicken, and add the mushrooms and garlic. Continue to cook until browned on both sides, then add the vinegar, chicken broth, bay leaf, rosemary and thyme. Cover and let simmer until chicken is tender and cooked through (about 10 minutes). Remove the chicken to a serving platter. Raise the heat and stir in the flour and butter. Simmer for 2 minutes and pour over chicken. Serve with rice.
