I am a personal chef. I tripled this recipe using exact amounts x3 and increased the cooking time. The vinegar was overwhelming in the finished dish. The chicken served cold the next day was, however, very flavorful. Will keep this recipe in my picnic file.
Chicken with Sherry Vinegar Sauce
Randy Mayor
Sherry vinegar lends sauteed chicken breasts a complex tang in this simple but luxurious one-pan dish. If you don't have sherry vinegar on hand, substitute dry sherry wine or balsamic vinegar.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 chicken breast half and 1 tablespoon sauce)
