Beer-Glazed Chicken

...a.k.a Commander Roostro's revenge - unsuccessful, of course, but a close call...  Originally from Rachael Ray online.

Recipe

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup light beer (e.g., lager)
3-4 tbsp honey
2 tbsp chopped thyme leaves
"evoo" salt & pepper

Heat some evoo in a large skillet medium-high.  Season the chicken with salt and pepper and sear until golden-brown, a few minutes per side.  Then add the beer, honey, and thyme.  Bring to a bubble and let the chicken cook/sauce thicken for about 5 minutes/until cooked through.

Notes

I loved boneless, skinless thighs that my old Morton-Williams carried.  Unfortunately Key Foods' best dark meat option was the full thigh, which was not nearly cooked through by the end.  The sauce was delicious, at least.  Worth trying again and getting right.
