Formatted into MM by Ursula R. Taylor.
Almost every French bistro serves a version of this homey dish. Our
recipe uses balsamic vinegar and fresh rosemary for a wonderfully simple
and slightly Italian variation. Serve with steamed or boiled potatoes and a
salad of baby lettuce.
Remove all visible fat from chicken. Spray a large nonstick skillet with
cooking spray. Brown chicken breasts over medium-high heat for 3 minutes
per side. Transfer chicken to a plate. Add onion, garlic, and mushrooms to
same skillet. Reduce heat to low and saute until onion is translucent but
not browned, about 3 minutes. Add vinegar, wine, pepper, salt, and
rosemary. Bring mixture to a simmer. Return chicken pieces to skillet.
Cover and simmer until chicken breasts are cooked through, about 20
minutes.
Transfer chicken to a heated serving platter. Cook sauce over high heat
until reduced to about 1/2 cup. Remove from heat and whisk in butter. Pour
sauce over chicken; garnish with rosemary sprigs.
Makes 4 servings.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
