Instructions
- Marinate the chicken for 2-6 hours in a Ziplock with ¼ cup balsamic, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 cup crushed strawberries, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper.
- When ready to cook, add the remaining oil to a cast-iron skillet set over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade (discard the marinade) and sear for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden-brown. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
- Add the onions to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until they begin to soften. Add the remaining strawberries, balsamic vinegar, and remaining salt and pepper; simmer for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries start to break down and the sauce thickens.
- Nestle the chicken and juices in the skillet between the berries. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover, maintaining a simmer, for 10-15 minutes, until internal temp is 165°F. Flip the chicken a few times and stir the sauce during the cook time to prevent sticking. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve with fresh mozzarella and basil, and additional fresh strawberries if desired.
Notes
- Storage: Store strawberry balsamic chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer (without the cheese) for up to 3 months.
