This recipe is sure to please all and will be requested often. The balsamic vinegar and brown sugar adds a delicious tangy and sweetness at the same time.—Jennifer Fisher, Austin, Texas
Ingredients:
1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
3 teaspoons canola oil, divided
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
4 slices french bread baguette
1/4 cup shredded swiss cheese
Directions:
1. In a large nonstick skillet, cook and stir onion in 1 teaspoon oil over medium-low heat for 10 minutes. Stir in brown sugar and vinegar; cook 5-10 minutes longer or until tender and golden brown. Remove and keep warm.
2. In the same skillet, brown chicken in remaining oil on both sides. Add broth, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Transfer to an 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray; top with onion mixture. Place a baguette slice over each chicken breast; sprinkle with cheese.
3. Cover and bake at 350° for 15 minutes. Uncover, bake 3-5 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Yield: 4 servings.
