Sauted Chicken with
Balsamic Citrus Sauce
This
week has sort of been a whirlwind, both literally and figuratively. For weeks like this I love having a stash of
quick and easy recipes on hand to make weeknight meals less chaotic.
This sauted
chicken is just such a recipe. It comes
together quickly with little prep and calls for ingredients that I always have on hand. More
importantly, it is really delicious. Chicken
is on heavy rotation at Chez V and can get quite boring. So when I land on a delicious one it goes
into the ‘Staples’ file of my recipe folder.
This
recipe comes from The Joy of Cooking – which is such a great cooking tome. I tend to forget what a great resource this cookbook is. Whenever I am in a cooking
rut, I pick it up and discover so many new ways to prepare stuff. I love that it gives variations on the same
recipe. Helps to prevent burnout on our 'Staples' recipes.
I
paired this with fresh peas and rice pilaf for a quick and delicious meal.
Enjoy and Happy Weekend!
kisses, mrs. V
yum! will be trying this!
ReplyDeleteK - Don't tell anybody but I usually use 2% milk in place of the heavy cream to cut out some fat. Still quite tasty.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the upcoming birth - try not to fret too much. I was sort of a basket case right after. The hormone thing is nuts more than the physical. For a brief moment I may or may not have wanted someone to come and pick up the alien that invaded my life - my type A world was thrown for a loop. But I worked it out. You are ahead of the game both mentally and physically. Love reading your blog.
