Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 20 min
Yield: 2 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb total); salt, to taste; black pepper, to taste; 1/4 cup all-purpose flour; 1 tbsp olive oil; 2 tbsp unsalted butter, divided; 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced; 2 tbsp sherry vinegar; 2 tbsp maple syrup; 2 tbsp soy sauce; 1 tbsp fresh chives, chopped

1

Using a sharp knife, make deep scores across the chicken breasts in a diamond or crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut all the way through.

2

Season the chicken generously on all sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

3

Lightly coat the seasoned chicken breasts in all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.

4

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter with the olive oil.

5

Place the chicken in the hot skillet and cook for 3 minutes per side, until golden brown.

6

Add the sliced garlic to the pan and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

7

Pour in the sherry vinegar, maple syrup, and soy sauce. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and stir to combine.

8

Reduce the heat to medium-low. Tilt the pan and continuously baste the chicken with the sauce for about 5 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through.

9

Transfer the chicken to a plate, spoon the remaining pan sauce over the top, and garnish with chopped fresh chives before serving.
