Ingredients
2/3 cup all-purpose flourFresh cracked black pepper8 (3- to 4-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken thighs1 tablespoon canola oil1/4 cup minced onion1 teaspoon minced garlic3/4 cup fresh-squeezed orange juice1/4 cup white balsamic vinegar2/3 cup dried whole figs, halved1 orange, peeled and roughly chopped1 teaspoon chopped rosemary
Directions
Place flour in a shallow dish. Pat-dry chicken with paper towels and sprinkle with pepper. Dredge chicken in flour and shake off excess. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When oil just starts to smoke, carefully add chicken and reduce heat to medium. Cook 4 to 5 minutes per side or until chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from pan and keep warm.

Add onions to skillet and cook 2 minutes over medium heat until lightly browned. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds. Add orange juice and vinegar and bring mixture to a simmer, stirring to loosen browned bits in the pan. Add figs and cook 2 minutes or until figs start to plump. Add any accumulated chicken juice from resting chicken breasts. Remove from heat and add orange and rosemary. Spoon chutney over chicken and serve.
