Steps:
- Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a small bowl, whisk the maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard and cayenne pepper. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet.
- Lower the heat to medium-low and add the garlic. Cook for about a minute stirring constantly. Add the broth and scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to remove any brown bits. Bring to a boil and cook for about 2 minutes or until the broth has reduced by half.
- Stir in the maple syrup mixture and mix to combine. Return the chicken to the skillet and turn to coat. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the chicken is well coated and the mixture looks syrupy. Remove from the heat and serve. Garnish with chopped parsley (optional).

Steps:
- Whisk together the vinegar, chicken broth, sugar, garlic, and Italian seasoning in a small bowl. Put chicken in a shallow bowl and add marinade. Allow to marinate for 20 minutes, turning chicken halfway.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and place in skillet, saving marinade. Cook chicken for 4 minutes on each side. Add remaining marinade and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, and sauce has started to thicken and coat chicken, 4 to 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken. For this recipe, boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work best. If you're using chicken breasts, pound them to an even thickness so they cook evenly.
- Use a good quality balsamic vinegar. A good balsamic vinegar will have a rich, complex flavor that will add depth to the glaze.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it's cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking will make the chicken dry and tough.
- Let the chicken rest before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
This skillet balsamic glazed chicken is a quick and easy weeknight meal that's packed with flavor. The chicken is cooked in a flavorful balsamic vinegar sauce that's perfect for serving over rice, pasta, or roasted vegetables. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have a delicious and healthy meal on the table in no time.
