Recipe submitted by DaVita dietitian Carrie from Texas.

Portions: 4     Serving size: 1 chicken breast

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless

I do wonder if there was possibly an issue with my chicken or my balsamic vinegar but the chicken was very tough and all you could taste was the balsamic vinegar. The next day I could still smell the garlic on my hands but I never could taste it in the dish. I doubt I'll try this one again.
