Fresh Balsamic Chicken Salad image

This flavorful salad uses reduced balsamic vinegar in its dressing, making it a sweeter version than the traditional balsamic vinaigrette. Feel free to use a leftover chicken breast in the salad...I ended up creating this salad to use one up!

Time 26m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

¾ cup balsamic vinegar
2 English cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1 cooked chicken breast, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly to prevent burning and reducing heat if necessary. Cook and stir until reduced to a syrup-like consistency, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Combine cucumbers, tomatoes, and chicken breast in a large bowl. Drizzle the balsamic reduction and olive oil on top; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

This chicken salad is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for a light summer lunch or dinner. I loved the combination of balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey, which gave the chicken a tangy and slightly sweet flavor. The fresh herbs
