I can’t take all of the credit for the delicious chicken you see pictured. My boyfriend first made this for me a year ago. I was a little skeptical that I’d like it since I’m not a huge fan of balsamic vinegar, but I loved it. It had just enough balsamic to give it some additional flavor without being overpowering. We made this together last night and served it with grilled green beans and parmesan basil orzo (actually, he made the chicken and green beans and I made the orzo).
