Rosemary Chicken With Orange-Maple Glaze - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup orange juice
    1/2 cup dry white wine
    1/2 cup maple syrup
    2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
    2 tablespoons butter
    2 tablespoons olive oil
Preparation
    Bring orange juice and wine to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat slightly, but keep high enough to continue a low boil for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in maple syrup and continue boiling for another 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until glossy and just slightly thickened. Set aside.
    In a small bowl mix together the rosemary, salt and pepper. Rub mixture on both sides of chicken breasts, and set aside.
    Melt butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken breasts, cover skillet and saute for about 5 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Pour orange-maple mixture over chicken (mixture will boil and bubble). Reduce heat to simmer; cover and let cook for another 10 minutes, basting occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and sauce has turned into a rich, thick glaze.
