Complete this weeknight "Sunday supper" with traditional fixings like chive-flecked mashed potatoes (don't worry—there's enough gravy for the potatoes, too) and buttered green beans. Baked maple apples would be delicious afterward.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 2 servings; can be doubled

Ingredients

2 chicken breast halves (with skin and bones; about 20 ounces)
1 1/2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon all purpose flour
1/3 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
