Add the chicken; cook for 6 minutes on each side or until tender. Remove from the mold; keep warm.Reduce the heat to medium; add the butter to the skillet. Add the onion; simmer for 3 minutes. Add the broth, vinegar, soy sauce, and figs. Simmer until the sauce is reduced to 1 cup (about 3 minutes). Add 1 tablespoon thyme and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cut the chicken breast halves diagonally lengthwise into slices. Serve the sauce on top of the chicken.
