Quick Italian Balsamic Grilled Chicken

Cook: 15 min
Total: 1h 15 min

Ingredients for 5 servings

  • 1 1/2 lb raw chicken breasts, boneless & skinless
  • Marinade:
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt (or more/less to taste)
  • one teaspoon coarse pepper
  • fresh mint

STEPS

Step 1

Mix ingredients for the marinade together in a bowl.  Place raw chicken breasts in a sealable plastic bag, then pour in the marinade.  Remove the air from the bag, then seal it.  Marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour, or overnight.

Step 2

Set a nonstick skillet on medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil.  Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear and cook on each side for 6 to 8 minutes.  The outside should be seared and no longer pink, and the inside should be white.

Step 3

Remove the chicken from the skillet and place on a plate (or in meal prep containers).

Step 4

Garnish with freshly chopped mint to boost the flavors.
