Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.5 cup balsamic vinegar
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the marinade by whisking together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper in a medium-sized bowl.
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Place the chicken on the preheated grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is no longer pink in the center.
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and allow it to rest for 5 minutes to retain its juices.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley (optional) before serving. Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as a salad or grilled vegetables.
