This balsamic chicken marinade elevates chicken to a whole new level of YUM! It’s seeping with complex savory, tangy, slightly sweet, herbilicious notes. The marinade is made with balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, Italian herbs and seasonings that inject the chicken with loads of effortless flavor. And the best part of this balsamic chicken marinade? It does ALL THE work! Come dinner time, just cook the chicken (grill, oven and stove methods included) and serve with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes and roasted asparagus or in salads, wraps, pasta, or sandwiches.
Balsamic is one of my favorite ingredients to use in chicken marinades! I’ve used it in my Greek chicken and Bruschetta chicken for its fruity tang, mellow tartness and rich, complex sweetness. Today, however, I’m excited to bring you this balsamic chicken marinade dedicated ALL to glorious balsamic. It creates chicken dripping with so much intoxicating flavor you will be obsessed. It’s savory, fruity, juicy, tender and goes with practically everything!
This marinated balsamic chicken is delicious in its simplicity alongside your favorite sides or you can keep the Italian theme and serve it in caprese salad, caprese sheet pan chicken, caprese chicken pasta and caprese chicken wraps.
No matter how you choose to serve your balsamic chicken, the best part is, it’s EASY and pantry friendly! The marinade takes all but 5 minutes to whisk together with ingredients I can almost guarantee you have on hand – which means you can enjoy a delicious, succulent chicken dinner with hardly any effort any night of the week. To me, my friends, that is winning at life. Enjoy!
