Balsamic Chicken ... Easy and Delish!

This is an oldie but a goodie ... I hadn't made it in years but needed something new for the crew and it worked!  Low carb eating (of course I added in sweet potatoes and sauteed veggies) that you can do quickly.

Balsamic Chicken

4 Boneless Chicken Breasts

salt and pepper to taste

2 T. flour ... you can experiment with different kinds if you are gluten intolerant

2T. olive oil

2/3 cup balsamic vinegar

2/3 cup chicken broth

1 t. dried thyme

Place the flour, salt and pepper on a dinner plate.  Dredge the chicken breasts and tap off any extra flour.  

In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.  Add the chicken and brown quickly - both sides, about 2 minutes per side.  Next, add the vinegar and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat and let simmer until the vinegar is reduced by about two-thirds.

Add the chicken broth and continue to simmer until the chicken is tender and cooked - about 10 minutes.  Remove the chicken and keep warm.  Add the thyme and keep the sauce boiling until it's reduced a bit more, about another 10 minutes.  Serve the sauce over the chicken.

Enjoy this meal with your family!
