Rosemary Chicken with Fresh Tomato and Balsamic Sauce

Ingredients:
  • 4 (1/4-lb.) thin-sliced boneless, skinless chicken cutlets
  • 2 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 shallots, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 2 cups red or yellow cherry tomatoes (or a mix of both), halved
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 tsp. capers, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tbsp. grated lemon zest
Makes 4 Servings (1 chicken cutlet with 1/3 cup sauce per serving)
  1. Sprinkle chicken with 1/2 teaspoon rosemary and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook just until browned and cooked through, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to platter and keep warm. 
  2. Add shallots and garlic to skillet; cook over medium heat, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add vinegar; cook, stirring with wooden spoon and scraping up any browned bits  from the bottom of the pan, until vinegar is evaporated. Stir in tomatoes, broth, capers, lemon zest, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons rosemary, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until tomatoes are softened, about 3 minutes. Return chicken and any accumulated juices to skillet; heat through. 
WW POINTS VALUE: 4 pts. 

Note: This recipe appears in the WW Tastier Than Takeout Cookbook. This meal is quick, easy and delicious. This meal is just as delicious as what you would order at a restaurant. The combination of tomatoes and balsamic vinegar is divine. If you don't have cherry tomatoes on hand, you can use Roma tomatoes or other kinds of tomatoes in this dish and it will still be flavorful and delicious.
