Ingredients
  

Chicken
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Marinade
  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Garnish
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Method
 

Marinate Chicken

Cook Chicken

  2. Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Serve
