Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz boneless chicken breasts or tenders
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon crushed dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon thyme
  • ½ teaspoon minced garlic
  • ⅛ salt optional
  • dash black pepper optional
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Method
 

  1. Slice chicken into thin pieces.
  2. Combine all ingredients except 1 teaspoon oil in large reclosable plastic bag. Place bag in refrigerator and allow to marinate at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day.
  3. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in skillet or pan and cook chicken until all sides are golden brown and internal temperature reads 165 degrees (approx. 7-10 minutes). (Discard marinade)
  4. Store any leftovers in refrigerator or freezer.

Notes

Allow chicken to marinate at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day in advance for best flavor. Discard marinate after use.
Use dried herbs and seasonings that are in date. Herbs with expired dates will be less flavorful.
If available, a heavy iron skillet will easily produce a brown crunchy crust.
