Grilled chicken breasts can be the epitome of boring. Too often they’re dried out or rubbery. But when soaked in a super-quick marinade — with balsamic, brown sugar, and dried thyme — you’re guaranteed deliciousness. Not to mention, grilling the breasts will lock in all those amazing flavors while providing some serious char.
INGREDIENTS
* 1/4 c. balsamic vinegar
* 3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
* 2 tbsp. brown sugar
* 3 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 tsp. dried thyme
* 1 tsp. dried rosemary
* 4 chicken breasts
* Kosher salt
* Freshly ground black pepper
* Freshly chopped parsley, for garnish
DIRECTIONS
In a medium bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, brown sugar, garlic, and dried herbs, and season generously with salt and pepper. Reserve ¼ cup.
Add chicken to the bowl and toss to combine. Let marinate for at least 20 minutes, overnight is better.
Preheat grill to medium-high. Add chicken and grill, basting with reserved marinade, until cooked through, 6 minutes per side.
Garnish with parsley before serving
