Truth be told I ended up making this recipe twice. The first time I used my indoor grill pan to cook the chicken for my mother in law and II , then after raving to my husband how good it was I made it again and used an outdoor grill. Either way I have to say is super delish!! I could eat this 100 different ways and not get tired of the flavor on the chicken.
Balsamic and Honey Chicken Skewers
(Adapted from Foodie Crush)
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, about 2 breasts
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons honey, divided
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced, plus more for garnish
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Gather 3-5 wooden skewers and place in a shallow plate with water for 30 minutes.
Trim the chicken breasts of any extra fat. Cut into 1 inch chunks and set aside.
In a medium size mixing bowl, whisk the balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, garlic, 1 tablespoon honey and 1 teaspoon rosemary plus a generous pinch of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Add the chunks of chicken breast and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
Preheat the grill to high. Thread the chunks of chicken onto the wooden skewers.
Spray the grill with non-stick cooking spray or olive oil. Reduce the heat to medium-high. Cook the chicken for 3-5 minutes on each side, basting the chicken with the remaining honey. Continue turning until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes or until chicken is opaque.
Let sit for 2-3 minutes and serve. Drizzle with more honey and fresh rosemary if you'd like.
I tend to always go with the same boring chicken recipe, but this is such an easy one to give me some variety.
