  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 5 - carrots, peeled & roughly chopped (could use baby carrots)
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed

How To Make vinegar-braised chicken and mushrooms

  • Step 1
    Season both sides of chicken generously with salt and pepper.
  • Step 2
    Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and, in batches, brown chicken on all sides, then transfer to a separate plate and set aside.
  • Step 3
    Reserving 2-3 tablespoons, drain off fat and sauce carrots and onions until tender. About 10 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Add mushrooms and cook for another 6-8 minutes, or until softened, then add crushed garlic and sauce for 2 minutes.
  • Step 5
    Season everything with salt and pepper, vegetables (discarding garlic) to the plate with the chicken.
  • Step 6
    Sprinkle flour into the Dutch oven and cook for 1-2 minutes, whisking continuously, until pasty and smooth.
  • Step 7
    Pour in the vinegars and whisk until smooth. Cook mixture for 3-5 minutes, or until thickened and reduced, then slowly mix in chicken broth.
  • Step 8
    Return chicken to pot and add bay leaf, then bring mixture to a boil.
  • Step 9
    Reduce heat to low, partially cover your pot and let simmer for 35-40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
  • Step 10
    Return vegetables to Dutch oven and serve with reduced sauce.
