Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  2. Marinate the chicken breasts in the mixture for at least 30 minutes.

  4. Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat and cook the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked.

Notes

  • This dish pairs well with a side of quinoa or a fresh salad.
  • Adjust the sweetness of the relish by adding more or less honey according to your taste.
