Ingredients

Directions

  1. Using a rolling pin, pound the chicken-breast halves between 2 sheets of wax paper until they are the same thickness.
  2. Heat the oil and garlic in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers and the garlic browns. (Don’t burn the garlic.)
  3. Add the chicken and cook until golden, 3 to 5 minutes on each side.
  4. Add 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, the vinegar, chicken broth, and rosemary.
  5. Cover skillet, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook 3 minutes more or until the chicken is fork-tender. Transfer the chicken to a platter and keep warm.
  6. Increase heat to high and boil sauce until it is thickened or syrupy, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk in the butter and pour the sauce over the chicken.

    Turnips

    Although the turnip has been grown for more than 4,000 years and was one of the first foods to be cultivated in Europe, it is currently underappreciated: It keeps well, takes to almost any cooking method, and has a subtly flavored, tasty flesh.
