Low Sodium Balsamic Chicken and Mushrooms


We had this tonight and it was wicked tasty!  I cut the chicken up before I cooked it and sauteed everything together because I wanted to mix it into some pasta.

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
    3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
    2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
    1 clove garlic, minced (or more!)
    4 (4 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/4 inch thickness
    2 cups small mushrooms, halved,or quartered if using larger mushrooms
    1/3 cup chicken broth or 1/3 cup white wine
    1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves, crumbled

Directions

In a nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of the oil.
In a bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of the vinegar, the mustard and garlic.
Add the chicken and coat both sides with the mixture.
Transfer the chicken and mixture to the skillet; saute until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
In the skillet, heat the remaining teaspoon of oil.
Saute the mushrooms about a minute; add the broth/wine, thyme and remaining tablespoon of vinegar.
Cook stirring until the mushrooms are deep brown, about 2 minutes longer.
Serve the chicken, topped with the mushrooms
