How to Make Balsamic Chicken With Mushrooms
- In a shallow dish, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Dredge chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs) in the flour mixture, ensuring a light coating.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and sauté for 6 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
- Add 8 ounces sliced mushrooms and 2 cloves minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, until mushrooms are softened.
- Pour in 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar, 1 cup chicken broth, 2 bay leaves, and 1 teaspoon fresh thyme. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear. Stir occasionally.
- Transfer chicken to a warm plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Remove the bay leaves. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer uncovered for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons butter until melted and incorporated. Pour sauce over chicken and serve immediately over cooked pasta.
