Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 (8 ounce) containers strawberry yogurt
½ cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon lemon juice
4 large strawberries
2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
1 teaspoon minced fresh mint leaves
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the yogurt, 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar, sugar, pepper, cinnamon and salt. Place chicken breast halves in a shallow baking dish, and pour the sauce over them. Refrigerate for 1 hour, turning chicken over half way through.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Scrape the marinade off of the chicken breasts, and place them into the hot oil. Quickly brown the chicken on both sides, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, and let rest for 3 minutes.
  • While the chicken is cooking, transfer the marinade to a saucepan. Bring to a low simmer over medium heat. Remove stems from strawberries, and slice thinly so they will fan nicely. Set aside.
  • Slice chicken breasts on the diagonal into 1/2 inch thick slices. Place on serving plates, and sprinkle with lemon juice. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the marinade over each chicken breast, and fan one sliced strawberry over the top. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh mint and parsley. If you really love balsamic vinegar, finish the dish off with an artful drizzle.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and flavorful strawberries: The quality of your strawberries will have a big impact on the flavor of the sauce. Look for berries that are deep red in color and have a sweet, juicy aroma.
  • Use a ripe chicken: A good quality chicken will also make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Look for a chicken that is free-range and organic, if possible.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is a delicate meat that can easily be overcooked. Cook it over medium heat until it is just cooked through, to keep it moist and tender.
  • Reduce the sauce until it is thick and flavorful: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the chicken and vegetables. If it is too thin, simmer it over low heat until it reduces to the desired consistency.
  • Serve the dish immediately: Chicken with strawberry sauce is best served immediately, while the chicken is still hot and the sauce is still warm.

Conclusion:

Chicken with strawberry sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple tips, you can make a restaurant-quality dish at home.
