Balsamic Garlic Chicken

This recipe was featured in Southern Living's July 2010 issue and is delicious. It's relatively easy to make and still has a lot of flavor without a ton of ingredients.

Ingredients:

4 (6 oz) boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 teaspoon of salt

1 teaspoon of pepper

2 tablespoons of butter

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1/2 cup of chicken broth

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

3 garlic cloves, chopped

1 1/2 teaspoons of honey

Directions:

1. Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper

2. Melt butter with oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; Add chicken and cook 6-7 minutes on each side or until done; Remove chicken and keep warm

3. Add chicken broth, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, garlic and honey to skillet and cook for 5 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring to loosen particles from the bottom of the skillet. Serve chicken with sauce on top.

* An easy side to pair with this is orzo, which is pictured below mixed with fresh pesto
