Balsamic Grilled Chicken

Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp honey
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp fresh basil
• 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• additional fresh herbs (for serving, optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   In a bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, honey, garlic, basil, thyme, salt and pepper.

2. 2

   Place chicken in a shallow dish or zip-top bag. Pour marinade over chicken and coat well. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours for deeper flavor.

3. 3

   Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F) and lightly oil the grates.

4. 4

   Remove chicken from marinade and place on the grill. Cook for 5–7 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F, grill marks form, and juices run clear.

5. 5

   Let chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with your favorite sides.
