Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the brown butter and sage elements, and pat the chicken breast dry so it colours well.
Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Turn up the heat and add the chicken breast. Grill over a medium-high heat, turning once, until nicely charred and cooked through.
Stir in the extra-virgin olive oil and the rest of the brown butter and sage flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.
Add the red onion along with a splash of stock or water, then cook briskly until everything is tender and the sauce clings.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little acid. It should taste bright, savoury and balanced.
Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
