Instructions
Marinade the Chicken:
- Butterfly the chicken to create two thinner pieces of equal size. Season with desired amount of salt and pepper.
- Combine the Balsamic marinade ingredients in a gallon freezer bag and add the chicken. Seal the air out and let it marinate for 30 minutes or more in the refrigerator.
Season the Potatoes:
- Slice the potatoes into pieces no more than ½ inch thick. I like to trim the round end off so the potatoes can lay flat in the skillet.
- Combine the potato seasonings in a small bowl.
- Add the potatoes slices and 2-3 Tablespoons olive oil to a new medium-sized bowl.
- Sprinkle generously with potato seasoning. Toss to coat. You can save any extra potato seasoning for another time.
Prepare the Skillet Meal:
- Heat 2 Tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat in a large cast iron skillet.
- Carefully add the chicken to the preheated skillet and leave it untouched to allow for a nice sear. About 5 minutes or so.
- Use kitchen tongs to lift the chicken and check the bottom. If it stills to the skillet, it may not be quite ready. Once it’s reached a deep golden-brown color, flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium if needed.
- Once you flip the chicken, add the potatoes and any additional vegetables.
- Once seared and cooked through, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to absorb before you slice it. The potatoes and vegetables can finish cooking during this time.
- Once the potatoes and vegetables are tender, remove from the skillet and serve.
- Garnishing with fresh Thyme or Rosemary adds a nice touch!
Notes
- Vegetables such as asparagus, bell peppers, onions, broccoli, carrots, etc. make a wonderful addition to this skillet as well and can be added at the same time as the potatoes.
- This Balsamic Marinade makes enough for 2-3 chicken breasts if you're increasing the serving size. Do not reuse the marinade after it's been used once.
- The chicken can marinate for up to 24 hours.
