- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 cup white wine or use white grape juice with a splash of cider vinegar
- sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2/3 cup low sodium chicken broth

Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium heat. Add chicken and cook till browned on both sides, about 5 minutes.
- Add next 5 ingredients (onion through black pepper). Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
