Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic glaze
Instructions
Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season them with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until golden brown and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add the cherry tomatoes (halved if preferred) to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until they soften and release some juices.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to combine with the tomatoes and garlic.
Add fresh basil leaves (roughly torn if large) and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Stir well and simmer for 2 minutes for the flavors to meld together.
Adjust seasoning with extra salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired.
Transfer the stir-fry to a serving plate and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of balsamic glaze.
Serve immediately, either on its own or over crusty bread, pasta, or rice for a complete meal.
