ingredients
- 4 boneless chicken breast halves, skin-on
- salt
- black pepper, freshly ground
- 12 leaves fresh sage, whole
- 1 teaspoon fresh sage, chopped
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1⁄2 cup chicken stock, reduced-sodium
- 2 red bell peppers, cut into thin strips
directions
- Preheat oven to a warm setting. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Loosen the skin of each chicken breast with your fingers and gently insert 3 sage leaves underneath each. In a large ovenproof skillet over medium high heat, heat butter and half of the olive oil. Saute chicken, skin-side down until nicely browned, about 7 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, turn chicken and continue cooking until cooked through, about 7 more minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and place in oven to keep warm. Add chicken stock to pan and turn heat to high. Cook until almost reduced by half, about 5 minutes, scraping up browned bits on the bottom. Transfer broth to a small bowl and set aside. Wipe out skillet with a paper towel. Heat remaining oil over medium high heat. Add peppers and saute until lightly browned and softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in broth and chopped sage; cook 1 minute more. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve over chicken.
