2 Tbsp. olive oil $0.32
2 cloves garlic $0.16
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar $0.80
2 Tbsp brown sugar $0.04

Place the chicken thighs in a shallow dish or heavy duty zip top bag and pour the marinade over top. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for 1 to 8 hours. (You can do this before you leave for work in the morning.) 3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Pour the chicken and marinade into a baking dish.

BALSAMIC-HONEY CHICKEN THIGHS



Balsamic-Honey Chicken Thighs image

I wanted to create something light with relatively few ingredients that didn't have vying tastes. This was perfect. Very simple but delicious. The measurements for the broth and balsamic vinegar are approximate. I served it with thin no-yolk egg noodles with a little bit of browned butter, black pepper, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Great side.

½ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 skinless, boneless chicken thighs
cooking spray
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
4 shallots, chopped
½ cup chicken broth
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon honey

Steps:

  • Sprinkle thyme and black pepper over chicken thighs. Spray a nonstick pan with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, organic chicken thighs, good quality soy sauce, and balsamic vinegar will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and herbs overnight or for at least 30 minutes will help infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help prevent the chicken from drying out.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad are all great options.

Conclusion:

Soy balsamic chicken thighs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and herbs creates a flavorful and slightly tangy sauce that pairs perfectly with the tender chicken.
