What You Will Need:

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 lb chicken breasts - boneless, cut into 4 oz portions
  • 1 oz olive oil
  • 1 whole onion - A medium yellow or white sliced thin
  • 1/2 c sun dried tomatoes - chopped, (not packed in oil)
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 3/4 cup chicken stock - home made if you've got it, low sodium if you don't
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper - to taste
US Customary - Metric

Equipment Needed:

  • Oven-Proof Skillet with Lid

Method:

DIRECTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Dry the chicken.
  • Place an ovenproof skillet over moderate heat.
  • Add the oil to the skillet when it gets warm.
  • When the oil is hot, add half the onions to the pan and place the chicken in the pan with the onions.
  • Cook the chicken for about 8 minutes or until it will release itself easily from the pan, then flip to cook the other side.
  • Continue to cook for 4 minutes.
  • Stir the onions to keep from burning.
  • Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  • Place remaining onions and tomatoes over the caramelized onions in pan.
  • Allow the onions and tomatoes to sweat in the pan for 3-4 minutes.
  • Reduce heat and add wine to deglaze the pan.
  • With a spoon stir the pan to remove the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • This deglazing technique will remove the flavor stuck to the bottom of the pan and release it to the vegetables.
  • Put the chicken back into the skillet.
  • Add stock just until the liquid level reaches halfway up the sides of the chicken.
  • Season with oregano and pepper to taste.
  • Cover with tight fitting lid and place in oven.
  • Bake 30 minutes.
