HONEY BALSAMIC CHICKEN
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 13 minutes
1 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. olive oil
4 (4oz) boneless skinless chicken breast halves***
6 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
6 tbsp. honey
Combine first three ingredients*; sprinkle over both sides of chicken. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 4-6 minutes on each side, or until chicken is done. Do not overcook, otherwise chicken breast will be dry and not juicy. Transfer chicken to platter; keep warm.
Reduce heat to medium-low; add vinegar and honey to pan**. Simmer 1-3 minutes until glaze thickens; stir constantly. Glaze will thicken more once cooled. Add chicken to pan and stir to coat.
Excellent served over rice and drizzled with glaze.
*There is really no need to measure and combine spices. Just sprinkle on both sides of chicken. Alternatives: Garlic powder, Italian spices.
**Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to glaze for a bit of a bite.
***I cut my chicken into one inch strips and then cooked them.
