Skinless, boneless chicken breasts gain deep flavor when served with an inky, rich, sticky sauce made from figs and butter. The sauce delivers restaurant-quality taste and, when spooned over and around the chicken, converts a monotonous weeknight protein into a special meal. Use squishy, plump dried figs so they melt readily into the sauce. If dried figs are particularly dry, presoak them in hot tap water for a few minutes, squeeze out excess water, and add the rehydrated fruit to the sauce to integrate sweetness and body. The butter-and-fig combination yields a glossy, concentrated finish that clings to the chicken.
