Balsamic Chicken w/Mushrooms- SUPER EASY & only 3pts!!

I just joined WW and made my first ever WW dinner... it was sooo yummy... even if you arent on weight watchers, it was such an easy and delicious dinner...



balsamic chicken with mushrooms

POINTS® Value: 3
Servings: 4
Preparation Time: 10 min
Cooking Time: 10 min
Level of Difficulty: Easy

For a different flair, substitute dry white wine for the chicken broth, then sprinkle on a few spoonfuls of chopped sun-dried tomatoes with the mushrooms.

* 2 tsp vegetable oil
* 3 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
* 2 tsp Dijon mustard
* 1 large garlic clove(s), crushed
* 1 pound uncooked boneless, skinless chicken breast, four 4-oz pieces
* 2 cup mushroom(s), small, halved
* 1/3 cup canned chicken broth
* 1/4 tsp dried thyme, crumbled

Instructions

* In a nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of oil.

* In a medium bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of vinegar, the mustard and garlic. Add chicken and turn to coat.

* Transfer chicken and marinade to skillet. Sauté chicken until cooked through, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer chicken to a platter and keep warm.

* Heat remaining teaspoon of oil in skillet. Sauté mushrooms for 1 minute. Add broth, thyme and remaining tablespoon of vinegar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are deep brown, about 2 minutes longer.

* Serve chicken topped with mushrooms.
