Marinated Balsamic Chicken

Balsamic chicken is so versatile! Enjoy over a salad, with rice & your preferred vegetable side, or over a pizza.

Marinate for at least 2 hours.

Cooking time is 15-20 minutes.

Ingredients:

Balsamic Marinade

• 80g (1/3 cup) balsamic vinegar

• 50g (1/4 cup) olive oil

• 1 tbsp minced garlic

• 3/4 tsp dried rosemary

• 3/4 tsp dried thyme

• 10g (2 tsp) dijon mustard 

• 1 tsp salt

• 1 tsp pepper

2 lb. chicken breast tenderloin (If using chicken breast, slice in half to create tenders or leave as is. Can also use chicken thighs but cooking time will change.)

Directions:

• Whisk marinade ingredients together. Pour into a gallon size ziplock bag. Add chicken and massage to mix well. Seal bag and remove as much air as possible from the bag. 

• Marinate for a minimum of 2 hours or 12 hours (overnight). 

• When you are ready to cook, preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Remove chicken from the marinade, shaking gently to remove excess liquid. Cook for 15-20 minutes until internal temp reaches 165. 

  The beauty of balsamic chicken is you can use it several ways.

  We had this over salad one night, with rice and roasted brussels sprouts, and over pizza.
