CHICKEN WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR



Chicken with Balsamic Vinegar image

Categories     Chicken     Mustard     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Vinegar     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup finely chopped onion
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 1/4 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar or 1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté until just tender, about 4 minutes. Add chicken and cook until chicken is brown, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Stir in vinegar and mustard. Continue cooking until chicken is tender and cooked through, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with basil if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade helps to tenderize the chicken and infuse it with flavor. Be sure to let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked.
  • Make sure the balsamic vinaigrette is well-balanced: The vinaigrette should be tangy, sweet, and slightly oily. If the vinaigrette is too thick, you can thin it out with a little water or chicken broth.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad are all great options.

Conclusion:

Balsamic vinaigrette chicken breasts are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the balsamic vinaigrette adds a tangy, sweet flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
