Easy Balsamic Chicken Recipe: A Weeknight Dinner Delight

Ingredients

• 0.5 cup chicken broth
• 0.33 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian herb seasoning
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

1. Gather all the necessary ingredients for this recipe.
2. In a bowl, whisk together chicken broth, balsamic vinegar, sugar, Italian seasoning, and garlic. Place chicken breasts in the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Allow the chicken to marinate for 10 minutes on each side to absorb the flavors.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use. Place the chicken breasts in the hot skillet and cook until they are browned and no longer pink inside, approximately 7 minutes per side.
4. Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet with the chicken. Cook until the sauce thickens slightly, turning the chicken breasts over once or twice to ensure even coating, about 5 minutes. Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a chicken breast to ensure it reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
