Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 cups Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 0.25 cups Chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Lower the heat to medium and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Pour in the balsamic vinegar, honey, and chicken broth. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until it thickens slightly.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the balsamic glaze over the top of each piece.
Simmer the chicken in the glaze for an additional 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the glaze to further thicken.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle any remaining glaze from the skillet over the top.
Garnish with fresh thyme if desired and serve hot with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or rice.
