Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 medium, diced Red bell pepper
- 1 medium, diced Zucchini
- 1.5 cups Sweet corn kernels
- 1 cup, halved Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium, diced Red onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and paprika on both sides.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.
Once melted, add the diced red onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the diced red bell pepper, zucchini, and corn kernels to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes to soften slightly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and honey. Pour the mixture over the sautéed vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
Let the vegetables cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the balsamic glaze to reduce slightly.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
Serve the chicken breasts on a plate with a generous portion of balsamic succotash on the side.
