Pan-Roasted Chicken Breasts

Recipe by John Mitzewich from allrecipes.com

Dinner 20 Mins.

Ingredients

4

4 servings

  • 4 boneless chicken breast halves with skin
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (thyme, parsley, rosemary)
  • 0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 4 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 tablespoon chicken broth (or water), if needed to thin sauce

Instructions

  • Gather all ingredients.
  • Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer. Place chicken breasts skin-side down in the skillet. Sprinkle with fresh herbs. Cook until the bottoms are well seared and golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Flip chicken breasts over and continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a breast reads 150 degrees F (66 degrees C), about 5 minutes.
  • Add vinegar and cold butter to the pan with chicken. Shake the pan gently until butter melts and the internal temperature of chicken reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • Stir in 1 tablespoon chicken broth to thin sauce.
