Level of Difficulty | Easy |
Ingredients
- 1/2 tablespoon butter (unsalted)
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil (extra-virgin)
- 1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
- 2 small red apples, sliced
- 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch strips
- 1 heaping tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Step 1: Prepare and Saute Onions and Apples
Heat butter and oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat.
Add sliced onions and apples to the pan.
Sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until both are softened and slightly browned.
Step 2: Season the Chicken
While the onions and apples are sautéing, season the chicken breast strips with 2 teaspoons of rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
Ensure the chicken is evenly coated with the seasoning.
Step 3: Brown the Chicken
Push the onion and apple slices to the edges of the pan, creating space in the middle.
Add the chicken breast strips to the center of the pan.
Brown the chicken on both sides, about 6-8 minutes total.
If the pan is too crowded, brown the chicken in batches to achieve a proper sear.
Step 4: Cook the Chicken Through
Add vinegar and the remaining teaspoon of rosemary to the pan.
Cover the pan, reduce the heat to medium, and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Transfer the chicken and apple-onion mixture to plates, making sure to pour any extra pan juices over the top.
Enjoy your savory and sweet chicken dish!
