Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Minced garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a small bowl, mix together the balsamic vinegar, honey, and minced garlic to create the glaze. Set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the balsamic glaze mixture into the skillet. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the glaze over the top, allowing them to heat through for 2-3 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the skillet, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
