1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme, divided

3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
8 1/3- to 1/2-inch-thick slices olive bread or 4 crusty sandwich rolls

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Sprinkle chicken on both sides with salt and pepper, then 1 tablespoon thyme. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; sauté until golden and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate.
