0.25 | tsp | black pepper |
1.25 | lb | chicken breasts |
1 | cup | chicken broth - low sodium |
1 | tsp | Cornstarch |
1 | tsp | dijon mustard |
3 | tbsp | olive oil |
2 | tbsp | orange marmalade |
1 | tsp | orange zest |
2 | tbsp | red wine vinegar |
0.5 | tsp | salt |
2 | unit | Shallots |
1. Whisk broth, vinegar, marmalade, mustard and cornstarch in a medium bowl.
Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 2/3 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
Add the remaining 1/3 teaspoons oil and shallots to the pan and cook, stirring often, until beginning to brown, about 30 seconds. Whisk the broth mixture and add it to the pan. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer; cook until the sauce is slightly reduced and thickened, 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Add the chicken; return to a simmer. Cook, turning once, until the chicken is heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in orange zest.
