From Cooking Light. Great sweet and salty mix! To cut down on the sodium, I reduced the amount of salt and replaced half of the chicken broth with water. I used about 1/2 green olives and 1/2 kalamata. Plus the dried fruit adds fiber to this meal!
Ingredients:
3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
4 (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
3/4 cup dried mixed fruit
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup fat-free low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup green olives, pitted and chopped
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Directions:
1. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Sprinkle salt, pepper, and thyme evenly over chicken.
3. Add chicken to pan; cook 4 minutes on each side or until done. Remove from pan; cover and keep warm.
4. Heat remaining 1 teaspoon oil in pan.
5. Add onion to pan; saute 2 minutes until tender.
6. Add garlic to pan; saute 30 seconds.
7. Add remaining ingredients to pan (fruit, wine, broth, olives, salt, and pepper); cook 5 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates.
8. When there was still some liquid left in the pan, I threw the chicken back in to warm through and soak some of the flavor.
