Ingredients

• 1 medium shallot , minced (about 3 tablespoons)
• 1 teaspoon unbleached all-purpose flour
• 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon juice from 1 lemon
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh chives

Preparation

Step 1

Add shallot to now-empty skillet and cook over medium heat until softened, about 2 minutes. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, 30 seconds. Add broth, increase heat to medium-high, and bring to simmer, scraping pan bottom to loosen browned bits. Simmer rapidly until reduced to ¾ cup, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in any accumulated chicken juices; return to simmer and cook 30 seconds. Off heat, whisk in lemon juice, chives, and butter; season with salt and pepper. Spoon over chicken and serve immediately.
