Prep time: about 15 minutes
Total time: about a half hour
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 TBSP olive oil, divided
1/2 tsp salt (I use Diamond Kosher Salt, which I love)
1/4 tsp black pepper (I eyeballed this with a pepper mill)
1/4 tsp dried thyme
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1/2 c. onion, chopped
2 tsp bottled, minced garlic
3/4 c. dried mixed fruit (Gavin and I have a lot of dried fruit in our pantry. When I made this, I used a combination of: apricots, cherries, white peaches and prunes)
1/2 c. dry white wine
1/2 c. chicken broth
1/4 c. chopped pitted green olives (I used some with pimentos in the olives and didn't bother removing the pimentos)
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
Preparation
1. Heat 2 tsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper and thyme evenly over chicken (I didn't bother measuring out--just eyeballed it). Add chicken to the pan; cook 4 minutes on each side, or until done. Remove from pan; cover and keep warm.
2. Heat remaining 1 tsp oil in pan (use the same pan you cooked the chicken in). Add onion to pan; sauté 2 minutes until tender. Add garlic to pan; sauté 30 seconds. Add fruit and remaining ingredients to pan; cook 5 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates.
3. Place chicken on plate or in bowl and spoon the fruit mixture over the chicken. (I can't remember what I served this with, but it would go nicely with rice, quinoa, or couscous.)
