Balsamic Chicken
This is a simple one-pot meal that gets a tangy kick from balsamic vinegar, which is a great flavour enhancer. Serve this alongside steamed vegetables and brown rice and you have a healthy balanced dinner with minimal preparation required.
Ingredients:
| Yellow onion, thinly sliced | 1 each | 1 each |
| Red or green pepper | 1 each | 1 each |
| Garlic, minced | 4 cloves | 4 cloves |
| Chicken breast | 4 each | 4 each |
| Balsamic vinegar | ½ cup | 125 mL |
| Diced tomatoes* | 1 can | 15 oz |
*Choose no-salt-added diced tomatoes
Directions:
- Coat a large saucepan with oil on medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic.
- Sauté for approximately 3-5 minutes, until the onions and peppers begin to soften.
- Add the chicken and sauté for about 4 minutes on each side until brown.
- Add the balsamic vinegar and canned tomatoes. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with optional black pepper and red pepper flakes to taste.
