Poulet Au Vinaigre

A lightened up version of a popular French chicken dish, known as Poulet Au Vinaigre, which is made with chicken thighs and shallots cooked in red wine vinegar and white wine.

Ingredients

• 32 oz 8 lean and trimmed boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• Kosher salt and fresh pepper
• 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp tomato paste
• 1 tsp butter
• 1 large shallot, thinly sliced (3/4 cup)
• 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 2 tbsp light sour cream
• 2 tbsp fresh chopped parsley

Directions

1. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine vinegar, honey, 3/4 cup chicken broth and tomato paste. Boil about 5 minutes, until it reduces down to about 3/4 cup. Remove from heat.
3. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat and add chicken. Cook on both sides, until brown, about 6-8 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside. Add the shallots and garlic to the skillet and cook on low until soft, about 5 minutes. Pour the sauce over the chicken, add the wine, remaining broth salt and pepper. Cover and simmer about 20 minutes until tender.
