Balsamic Chicken
In the middle of winter when our barbecue grill is safely tucked away in the garage I am always trying to find creative ways to make chicken. I can't recall where I stumbled upon this tasty recipe but my family is happy we did. I have made it many times for families when we are helping out with a meal and it has always gotten rave reviews. I like to use a high quality balsamic vinegar for this dish and it makes a huge difference.
Recently I discovered a great little shop in Portage with so many high quality oils and vinegars. It is called The Pantry and I highly recommend checking it out. The prices are great and the store owner was extremely helpful. It doesn't hurt that you are allowed to sample all of these delicious goodies!
