A delightful chicken dish featuring tender chicken breasts paired with a rich, golden onion glaze.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter.
Using butter adds a rich flavor to the onions, but you can substitute with olive oil for a lighter option.
Slice the onions thinly and add them to the skillet.
Slice the onions evenly to ensure they cook at the same rate.
Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and caramelized, about 15 minutes.
Cook the onions slowly to bring out their natural sweetness.
Mix the salt, thyme, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Mixing the spices beforehand ensures even seasoning.
Sprinkle half of the seasoning over the onions and stir.
Seasoning the onions enhances their flavor.
Add the balsamic vinegar and half of the chicken broth to the skillet. Cook until the liquid reduces by half.
Reducing the liquid concentrates the flavors.
Remove the onion mixture from the skillet and set aside.
Keep the onions warm by covering them with foil.
Rub the remaining seasoning onto the chicken breasts.
Ensure the chicken is evenly coated with the seasoning for consistent flavor.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to check that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Serve the chicken topped with the caramelized onion glaze.
Garnish with fresh thyme leaves for a touch of color and flavor.
