Strawberry Basil Chicken
Strawberry Basil Chicken is a super simple one pan dish that comes together in less than 30 minutes! You'll love the savory/sweet combo with fresh basil and strawberries.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 3-4 large chicken breasts
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves crushed
- 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar + more to taste
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 cups chopped fresh strawberries
- 1 cup chopped fresh basil
Instructions
- Begin by heating a large skillet to medium heat.
- Prepare your chicken breasts: you may need to pound the breast to make them a bit thinner, mine were approximately 1 inch. While the skillet is heating up, marinate the chicken with garlic and balsamic vinegar.
- Add oil to the pan. Cook for 3-5 minutes per side (until golden brown, but cooked through). Set aside.
- Meanwhile, prepare the topping. Toss together strawberries and basil. Top each chicken breast with strawberry mixture, and salt and pepper to taste. Add additional balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze* if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
Balsamic glaze is a thick syrup like version of balsamic vinegar, it is also a bit sweeter. It can be found in some grocery stores near salad dressings.
