Ingredients
Scale
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup dried figs, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon honey
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh rosemary or thyme for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a bowl, combine the balsamic vinegar, chopped figs, olive oil, minced garlic, honey, salt, and pepper. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until well combined. Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
Before taking the chicken out, preheat a large skillet over medium heat.
Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve it for later use). Drizzle olive oil in the hot skillet, then add the chicken breasts. Cook for 6-7 minutes per side until the chicken is browned and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Once the chicken is cooked, pour the reserved marinade into the skillet. Let it simmer for a few minutes to reduce and thicken the sauce.
Transfer the chicken to a serving plate, drizzle with the thickened balsamic fig glaze, and garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Serve immediately.
