Chicken with Herb-Roasted Tomatoes and Pan Sauce

This elegant chicken with herb-roasted tomatoes and pan sauce is a wonderful choice for a light yet deeply flavourful supper. By roasting cherry tomatoes with fragrant herbes de Provence until they burst, you create a natural, vibrant base for a sophisticated pan sauce. This diabetes-friendly dish relies on high-quality olive oil and fresh herbs like tarragon and parsley to provide a rich, savoury finish without the need for heavy creams or added sugars.

Perfect for a mid-week dinner or a healthy weekend meal, this recipe showcases how simple, wholesome ingredients can produce a restaurant-standard result. The acidity from the red wine vinegar and Worcestershire sauce cuts through the succulent roasted chicken, making it a balanced and heart-healthy option.

How to make Chicken with Herb-Roasted Tomatoes and Pan Sauce

Preheat oven to 232°C. Combine tomatoes, 2 tablespoons oil, and herbes de Provence in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy ovenproof skillet until oil shimmers. Carefully add tomatoes to pan (oil may spatter). Transfer skillet to oven and roast, turning once, until tomatoes burst and give up some of their juices, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and drizzle with Worcestershire sauce.

Meanwhile, season chicken all over with 1 teaspoon salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken on both sides until golden brown, 6-8 minutes. Transfer pan to oven and roast chicken until cooked through, 8-10 minutes. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let rest for at least 5 minutes.

Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to same skillet; heat over medium heat. Add shallot and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Deglaze pan with vinegar, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pan; add tomatoes and their juices and simmer until sauce is just beginning to thicken, about 1 minute. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.

Slice chicken; divide among plates. Spoon tomatoes and sauce over; garnish with herbs.
