Grilled Pesto Stuffed Chicken with Balsalmic Glaze

Author: Amy Rains

Ingredients

  • 1 - 2 lbs of chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup pesto I used my spinach pesto recipe
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • For the glaze:
  • 1 cup balsalmic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp. honey
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

Instructions

  • Prepare your grill
  • Pound the chicken breast to about 1/2 inch thickness
  • Brush each chicken breast with approximately 1 tbsp. pesto
  • Fold the chicken breast so the pesto remains completely inside
  • Grill chicken until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees (depends on your grill, but this is often 5-7 minutes per side for our grill)
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze.
  • Bring balsamic to a boil, lower heat to a simmer and add honey & mustard.
  • Simmer for about 5 minutes or until balsamic has thickened a bit.
  • Pour over grilled chicken.
