Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Sauté onion in hot oil until dark golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in balsamic vinegar; set aside.
Step 2
Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir rice in hot oil for 2 minutes. Pour in wine and reduce heat to medium-low. Pour in 1 cup hot broth; cook and stir until broth is absorbed. Continue adding remaining broth, 1 cup at a time, until all broth is absorbed and rice is tender yet firm to the bite, about 20 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in reserved onion mixture until heated through. Remove from heat. Stir in chicken and butter; season with salt and pepper. Garnish each serving with thyme.
