Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry. Trim off excess fat. Cut each breast half into 3 sections; remove the thin end by slicing in half on the diagonal. Cut the thick end crosswise into two thinner medallions. Set aside.

In a small food processor, combine the next 8 ingredients, for the rub. Process to a smooth paste. Rub paste over chicken medallions and set aside on a plate or in a in a zip-seal bag for at least 1 hour or overnight.
-
To make the sauce, heat the chicken broth to boiling in a medium-size skillet, and continue to boil until reduced to 1/2 a cup. Add the remaining ingredients to the skillet. Return to the boil, cover and simmer gently for about 3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings.
-
Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Arrange chicken in a single layer on a foil-lined broiler pan. Broil on the top rack for 3 minutes per side or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken registers 160 F. Divide chicken between 4 plates and top with sauce.
