Balsamic Chicken

This is a typical Sunday lunch at my home.  It could be the same at your home as well. 

This is a simple yet very rich and delicious recipe for chicken.  Although this recipe is not new, I made my version of it.  My family enjoyed very much, I know yours will do too.

Balsamic Chicken
Ingredients:
  • 2 defrosted chicken breasts  
  • 1/2 teaspoon of dry oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon of dry rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon of dry basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon of dry parsley
  • Sea salt
  • 2 Tablespoon of unsalted butter
  • 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
  • 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar


Balsamic Chicken











Directions:

Balsamic Chicken
  1. Season the chicken breast with the dry ingredients.  Let flavors set for at least a couple of hours.  Understand that the longer you stay in this step, the more flavor your chicken will have.
  2. In a frying skillet, melt the butter on medium heat, cook chicken until brown on both sides 4-5 minutes each side. 
  3. Add sliced onion and cook until translucent. Lower the heat and stir in Balsamic vinegar and cook until onions are caramelized about 15 minutes.
  4. Slice chicken and serve over pasta or rice.
