Ingredients
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 1/4 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
- 2 red onions, halved, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons water, optional
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 lemon, juiced, divided
- 1/4 cup fresh herbs, such as oregano, chives, or thyme, chopped
- capers or pitted olives, optional, to taste, drained, for serving
Directions
Step 1 -In a shallow dish, add the flour, the salt, the thyme, the pepper, and the paprika and whisk to combine.
Step 2 -Light coat each side of the chicken breasts in the flour mixture.
Step 3 -Drain the sun-dried tomatoes, reserving 4 tablespoons of the oil.
Step 4 -In a large skillet over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the sun-dried tomato oil until it is shimmering.
Step 5 -Add the chicken breasts to the hot oil and cook, turning them occasionally, until they are golden-brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Step 6 -Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate.
Step 7 -In the same skillet over medium heat, add the remaining sun-dried tomato oil.
Step 8 -Add the onions to the hot oil and cook, while stirring occasionally, until they soften and begin to caramelize, about 12 minutes. If the onions start becoming too dark too fast, add the water, a little at a time.
Step 9 -Add the sun-dried tomatoes and the garlic to the onion mixture and cook, while stirring, until warmed through, about 1 minute.
Step 10 -Add the white wine, the broth, and 1/2 of the lemon juice to the onion mixture and bring it to a simmer.
Step 11 -Simmer the onion mixture, while stirring frequently, until it has thickened into a sauce that coats the back of a spoon, about 10 minutes.
Step 12 -Reduce the heat to medium-low.
Step 13 -Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cover the skillet.
Step 14 -Cook the chicken breasts in the sauce, undisturbed, until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 7-8 minutes.
Step 15 -Transfer the skillet from the heat.
Step 16 -Top the chicken breasts with the remaining lemon juice and the fresh herbs.
Step 17 -Serve with the capers.
