This sounds great but I can’t imagine that using 1 tsp of balsamic vinegar for 4 chicken breasts would add that much flavor. Is this a typo?
This is a great easy and fast recipe. I am making it for the second time and will probably make it quite often. My husband and I recently lost a large amount of weight and this is a perfect low calorie meal for us. Looking forward to trying more of your recipes.
Thank you so much for repinning and posting my recipe on your site. You can find more at my site:)

This sounds yummy. I am going to try it.
What is the amount of balsamic vinegar to use? 1/2 tsb does not seem right.
This recipe was chosen for us to try in our cooking club. I made this for dinner last night and it’s very good! You can check out my post about it and the cooking club at my blog. Thanks for sharing!
Yeah I totally added more like a TBS of the balsamic and don’t know why you would pre pan cook the chicken if you can throw it all in the oven. If it needs more balsamic flavor I bought some balsamic glaze to dizzle over it. And I think It would be pretty good with noodles too.
