- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons peanut oil
- 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, halved
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 onion, chopped fine
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 tablespoons butter
- salt, to taste
Combine soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, and broth. Boil until reduced by half.
In large skillet, heat oil and saute chicken pieces until well browned. Remove from pan.
In same skillet, cook garlic, onion, and bay leaf until onion is softened. Add broth, chicken with their juices and simmer, turning the chicken until chicken is cooked through.
Place chicken on plates, stir butter into sauce and cook until slightly thickened. Discard bay leaf, season with salt and pepper and pour over chicken. Serve.
The chicken broth sauce has been made and the chicken has been browned and we're cooking up our onions and garlic mixture. It smells so good!
While the onions were limping, mom made salad. Both of us love lettuce!
Dindin is done only we don't get any of it because mom says there are just too many onions involved but we did to have a tomato wedge and a crouton!
We'll take it! It's better than nothing, right?!
So until next time...............
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch

You eat lettuce? Now that is something new to me. I suppose with some blue cheese dressing it might be good.

ooooo.... I imagine the house smells inviting as the onions and garlic saute.....and the dollop of butter at the end finishes the recipe perfectly. Thanks for the recipe, I have everything (except the onion) on hand and plan to make this dish!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the Andy Warhol-esque header, and very much enjoyed catching up with your Turquoise Thursday. That carved Abe Lincoln is wonderful. You show such interesting things! Have a happy weekend! xoxoxo
Tom and I make that dish too with a little less onions so Bambi can share and Happy too. Bambi loves vegies but not lettuce. Bruce loved lettuce. We are all different!!!
ReplyDeleteXXOO, Bambi & Fern
