6 chicken cutlets, or 3 breasts (about 1.5lbs)1 medium onion, sliced8 oz. sliced mushrooms (optional, not included here)1/4 c. olive oil1/5 c. chicken broth4 tbsp. all-purpose flour2 tbsp. lemon juice2 tbsp. balsalmic vinegar1 1/2 tsp salt1/4 tsp. pepper
Directions
Preheat oven to 450*. Pour oil into large roasting (I used 9 x 13) pan. Add chicken, onions, (mushrooms), turning to coat with oil. Bake 5 mins; turn chicken over and stir vegetables. Bake an additional 5 mins.
Meanwhile, in medium bowl, whisk flour into chicken broth. Add vinegar, lemon juice, salt and pepper, stirring well.
When chicken has cooked for 10 mins, add broth mixture to roasting pan, cover with foil and bake 10 mins. Remove foil; stir vegetables and bake, uncovered, until sauce bubbles and is slightly thickened, about 10 mins.
Heat broiler. Turn chicken over. Place pan 6 inches from heat and broil until chicken just starts to turn golden, about 3-5 minutes. Serve immediately

    I made this recipe from the original Time Life card, but it called for 1-1/2 c chicken broth rather than 1/5. That changed the numbers a bit. It is good and easy to make. - 12/21/09
