Equipment
- Grill or Grill Pan
- Stove
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts large
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- 2 garlic cloves crushed
- 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 cups fresh strawberries chopped
- 1 cup fresh basil chopped
Instructions
- Start by preparing your chicken breasts - you can butterfly cut them or pound them with a mallet to help make them thinner.
- Add your balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and garlic in a large bowl and marinate the chicken for 10 minutes.
- Next, heat a large grill pan or skillet to medium heat.
- Add your oil to the pan or skillet before adding your chicken breasts. Cook for 3-5 minutes per side or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165℉.
- While the chicken is cooking, prepare your strawberry basil topping. Hull and quarter your strawberries and add to a bowl. Next, chop your fresh basil and add to the strawberries.
- Once the chicken has cooked through, remove it from the stove and top it with the strawberry-basil mixture. Serve immediately.
