Ingredients
-> 2 small chicken breasts, 330g / 11.6 oz
-> 2 fresh figs
-> marinade:
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar good quality
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 heaped teaspoon honey
- 1 heaped teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
-> to serve: eg potatoes, cooked green beans with butter, fresh thyme for sprinkling
Instructions
- Lightly pound the thicker part of the chicken breasts, so that the whole breast has a similar thickness (but not too much, they still need to look like chicken breasts and not fillets). Season well with salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, whisk the ingredients for the marinade.
- Place the chicken in a small baking dish, pour the marinade over the meat, leave for about half an hour to marinate or longer (overnight, in a refrigerator).
- Preheat the oven to 175 ° C / 347 °F / Gas Mark between 3 and 4.
- Slice the figs and arrange on the meat.
- Put the chicken in a preheated oven and bake for about 22 minutes. You can check if the meat is ready by measuring its internal temperature, it should be 74°C / 165°F. The baking time may vary depending on the size of the meat and type of the oven.
- While the chicken is baking, you can cook the potatoes and green beans.
- Remove the chicken from the oven, leave to rest for about 5-10 minutes. Transfer on plates and serve, spoon the sauce from the baking dish over the meat.
- Enjoy!
