Balsamic Chicken image

Delicious chicken dish for a nice, simple, light meal. Note:This is one of the recipes I adopted in the Great 'Zaar Orphan Adoption of 2005. I hope you enjoy it. Note: If desired, you can substitute approximately 12-16 chicken breast tenders (tenderloins) in lieu of the whole chicken breasts.

Time 21m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (see note in intro)
2 teaspoons lemon-pepper seasoning
1 1/2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup chicken broth
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons butter
parsley sprig
cherry tomatoes

Steps:

  • On a hard surface with meat mallet, lightly pound chicken to 1/4-inch. To minimize the mess, place the breasts/tenders in a zipper-lock bag (unsealed) before pounding (if doing so, ONLY use a flat-surface mallet -- not one with ridges).
  • Sprinkle lemon-pepper seasoning evenly on both sides of chicken. Press to adhere.
  • In a large frying pan, pour oil and heat to medium temperature.
  • Add chicken breasts and cook, turning once, about 7 minutes or until fork can be inserted in chicken with ease. If substituting tenders, cook approximately 2-3 minutes per side, or until done.
  • Remove chicken to warm serving platter (keep warm). In medium bowl, mix together vinegar, broth and garlic; add to frying pan. Cook over medium-high heat (scraping up brown meat bits) about 2-4 minutes or until mixture is reduced and syrupy.
  • Add butter; stir to melt.
  • Place chicken on serving dish and spoon sauce over chicken.
  • Garnish with parsley sprigs and cherry tomatoes.
