Onion Chicken in Balsamic Sauce

OK, I hate to overwhelm you, but two yummy chicken recipes in a row? What could be better? Here we go, this one will leave you feeling like you just left a classy, upscale restaurant- but really, your still in your own kitchen...

 

Ingredients:

1 TBSP olive oil

1 sweet onion, chopped

4 chicken breasts

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 1/2 cup chicken broth

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes

S & P to taste

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350. In a large skillet over the stove, heat your oil and add your chopped onion and garlic and saute over med.-high heat for a few minutes until the onions are tender. Put washed chicken breasts in skillet and brown for a few minutes on each side. (NOTE: I cut my chicken breasts into halves, or thirds if they are huge, so that they soak up more of the goodness, I mean juices.)  After it is browned on the stove, place the chicken & onions in a 9x13 baking dish. Heat the balsamic and chicken broth in the same skillet until it boils, let is simmer for a few, it will thicken some. Pour this mixture in your baking dish over your chicken, cut up your sun dried tomatoes and put them in (if they are whole, I cut then in half or thirds with kitchen scissors), then cover it with foil and pop it in the oven for 20- 30 minutes.

Serve with: it is almost a MUST to serve this dish with some sort of pasta/rice because it has so much wonderful juice, it really is great over a bed of pasta. I use the whole wheat pasta from Trader Joe's and I make a green to go along side. ** This dish has been known to be a big hit with company- great to make for guests!
