Onion Smothered Chicken

This is a delicious stove-top meal complete with veggies.  I usually pair it with some rice or mashed potatoes and a dinner roll.

Ingredients:

• In one bowl mix:
• 3 Tbsp red wine vinegar
• 2 tsp sugar
• 1/4 tsp sage
• sprinkle of salt

Other ingredients:

• chicken (leg, thigh, breast, breast tender for our family)
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 2 onions (sliced)
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 Tbsp flour
• 2 tsp sugar
• 3 Tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1/4 tsp sage
• 1 carrot (cut in strips)
• 1 red bell pepper (cut in strips)

How to:

• Add the chicken to the bowl of vinegar, sugar, and sage.  Let it sit for 15 minutes.  Broil or grill the chicken.  Alternative - you can cook the chicken in the marinade- just cook at 400 degrees for 40 minutes or until cooked through.  Put it in a dish with a lid so the chicken cooks in the liquid and take the lid off for the last 10 minutes so that some of it evaporates.  I recommend doubling the amount of red wine vinegar if you cook it in the liquid.
• In a frying pan, heat the oil. 
• Add the onions and 2 tsp sugar. 
• Cook for 5 minutes until brown. 
• Add the broth and cool until most of the liquid has evaporated (5 minutes). 
• Add the flour, carrot, bell pepper, 3 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 1/4 tsp sage, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. 
• Cook for about 10 minutes until the onions are caramelized. 

Enjoy!
