Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs about 6
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 shallots thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley optional

Method
 

  1. Pat thighs dry and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Brown chicken 3-4 minutes per side; remove.
  3. Add butter and shallots; cook 2-3 minutes until soft.
  4. Stir in balsamic, brown sugar, broth, and mustard. Scrape browned bits.
  5. Return chicken to pan and reduce heat to medium-low.
  6. Spoon sauce over thighs and simmer 8-10 minutes until cooked through.
  7. Turn once so glaze thickens and coats chicken evenly.
  8. Sprinkle parsley and serve with rice or roasted veggies.
