Yield 6 people

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 bBone-in chicken thighs
1 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
3 sprigs fresh rosemary, removed from stem
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/4 c. Aged balsamic vinegar
1/4 c. white wine (I used a Sauvignon Blanc)
1/2 c. Low-sodium chicken broth
Kosher salt, to taste
Fresh ground black pepper, to taste

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:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Look for fresh, organic chicken, and use a good-quality balsamic vinegar.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in the balsamic vinegar mixture helps to infuse it with flavor. You can marinate the chicken for as little as 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.
  • Add the balsamic vinegar mixture towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent the vinegar from burning.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Chicken balsamic can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Chicken balsamic is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides, and it is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a new chicken recipe, give chicken balsamic a try.
