Easy Fancy Chicken
-
1 chicken breast
-
2T high temp oil (avocado, pure olive, MCT, etc.)
-
1/2 cup good red wine (not cooking wine)
-
1/4 cup Herbed Cranberry Fig sauce
-
Salt to taste
Directions
-
Heat oil (over medium flame) in a stock pot just slightly larger than your chicken breast
-
Once the oil reaches around 375º, add the chicken breast to the pot. Leave it alone until it has browned and easily lifts from the bottom.
-
Flip over the chicken, add your wine, and loosely cover the pot leaving a small gap for steam to escape.
-
When chicken reaches 160º, remove it to a plate and cover with a paper towel; it will continue cooking to 165º while it rests.
-
Add the Herbed Cranberry Fig sauce to the pot, mix with the wine, and bring to a low boil. Let simmer until the mixture has reduced to a medium-thick consistency. Remove from heat and salt to taste.
-
Plate the chicken with your sides of choice (I like green beans and mashed potatoes) and pour the sauce on top. Serve and enjoy!
