Balsamic Chicken Recipe
I will admit–I make this recipe a lot. It’s so easy, so tasty, and done in no time. Plus my family and I love it! My favorite way to serve this chicken dish is with mashed potatoes and steamed green beans. But it also goes well on whole wheat pasta or along side Oven Baked Rice. See if it becomes a regular dinner in your house!
