Friday, March 4, 2011

Love this recipe! It goes great in a salad! Or you can serve with a side of quinoa/bulgar wheat veggie pilaf.

Ingredients

  • Olive oil cooking spray
  • 12 oz chicken tenders
  • Ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
  • Fresh parsley (optional to garnish)

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken tenders and season with pepper. Cook, turning pieces halfway through, until cooked, approximately 7 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.

2. Reduce heat to low-medium, add garlic and saute. Then add vinegar, honey and chicken broth. Simmer, scraping the bottom of the pan for 1 minute.

3. Return chicken to pan. Mix all ingredients together and heat through. Garnish and serve.
