Preparation

Step 1

Lift the skin of the chicken and put in 2 branch of thyme. On the other side of the breast add a generous shoot of salt and pepper.

In an ovenproof pan, put a little bit of oil and butter. Grill the breasts to make the skin crispy. Turn it, add the white beer in the pan and put it in the oven for about 35 minutes at 375 F. After cooking, do not hesitate to take the liquid and put it in the pan with the sauce.

In another saucepan, put the chicken broth, cream, the maple syrup and let it reduce by half.

For the presentation, grill some vegetables of your choice in the oven with a little bit of olive oil (around 10 minutes at 400 F).

To serve, put the vegetables in the dish, place the chicken breast on top and sprinkle with a good amount of sauce.
