Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons canola oil
• 4 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons thinly sliced shallots
• 1/2 cup beer
• 2 tablespoons lower-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon whole-grain Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

Preparation

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Sprinkle chicken evenly with pepper and salt.

Add chicken to pan; sauté 6 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken from pan; keep warm.

Add shallots to pan; cook 1 minute or until translucent. Combine beer and next 3 ingredients (through honey) in a small bowl; stir with a whisk.

Add beer mixture to pan; bring to a boil, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Cook 3 minutes or until liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup.

Return chicken to pan; turn to coat with sauce.

Sprinkle evenly with parsley.
