Ingredients
- Nonstick spray
- 2 large Chicken breast boneless skinless butterflied, see pro tips below
- 1 tbsp Chicken Seasoning rub
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 4 cloves Garlic slivered
- 1/4 cup Red onion diced small
- 1.5 cups Chicken broth
- 2 tsp Fresh thyme minced, plus sprigs for garnish
- 2 tsp Lemon juice to taste
- 2 tsp Cornstarch dissolved in an equal amount of water
- 4 slices Crusty bread toasted, or bread of your choice
Instructions
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with nonstick spray.
- Season the chicken on both sides with chicken seasoning rub. Use more if needed.
- In the same pan melt the butter on medium low heat. Saute the garlic and onion until soft. Add the broth, thyme, and lemon juice; bring to a simmer to build flavor.
- Grill the chicken on both sides getting nice char marks to an internal temperature of 160 degrees using a thermometer. Then set aside on a cutting board.
- Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the lemon as needed. Slowly stir in the cornstarch mixture a little at a time until the liquid becomes a thickened smooth consistency. (If the sauce is too thick, thin it out with a little more broth, if too thin, continue simmering until it reduces to a creamy consistency.)
- Spoon the sauce over the chicken. Serve with bread. Garnish with thyme.
Notes
Pro tips: Butterfly the chicken: Lay the breasts down on a cutting board, using a sharp knife parallel to the cutting board slice the breasts through the middle (carefully) all the way in half.
