Equipment

  • large skillet

Ingredients
  

Marinade

  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herb seasoning
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Chicken

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Whisk chicken broth, balsamic vinegar, sugar, Italian seasoning, and garlic together in a bowl. Place chicken breasts in marinade; let marinate for 10 minutes on each side.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade; reserve marinade. Place chicken in the hot skillet and cook until browned and no longer pink inside, about 7 minutes per side.
  • Pour marinade into the skillet. Cook until sauce thickens slightly, turning chicken breasts over once or twice, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chicken breast should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Notes

Sometimes I cut the chicken into strips and serve it over pasta.
