Steps:
- 1. In your Dutch oven, add the oil and season the chicken with salt and pepper. 2. Next, brown the chicken on both sides until the chicken is almost cooked through. You may need to do this in two batches. Transfer the chicken to a platter, cover and set aside. 3. Add the rosemary, garlic, vinegar, wine and chicken broth to the Dutch oven and bring to a boil. Let simmer 5 minutes. 4. Add the chicken back in, cover and let simmer for 30-40 minutes(until the chicken is cooked through). Remove the chicken and place on a serving platter; then cover and set aside. 5. Turn the heat on high and bring the liquid in the Dutch oven up to a full boil, uncovered for approximately 15 minutes until the sauce has thickened. Pour the sauce over the chicken.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: For best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. These cuts of chicken are lean and cook quickly, making them ideal for this recipe.
- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in the balsamic vinegar mixture helps to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat helps to prevent it from drying out. Be sure to cook the chicken until it is cooked through, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use a good quality balsamic vinegar: The quality of the balsamic vinegar you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Be sure to use a good quality balsamic vinegar that is thick and syrupy.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: This chicken dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Conclusion:
This chicken balsamic recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the balsamic vinegar sauce is rich and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
