½ cup boiled cider

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 400˚F.

Preheat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, until the surface of the pan is very hot. With paper towels, dry the chicken breasts then season well with salt and pepper.

Pour off all fat remaining in the skillet and place over medium-high heat. Add the wine and deglaze while scraping up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the stock and bring to a boil and cook until it thickened about 6 minutes. Whisk in the remaining 4 tablespoons butter, boiled cider, and lemon juice.
