How to Make Balsamic Chicken Breasts With Peppers And Onions
- Season chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs) generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown.
- Remove chicken from skillet and set aside on a plate.
- Add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to the skillet. Add 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped, and 1 medium onion, sliced. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook for 1 minute more, until fragrant.
- Stir in 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped, and 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar. Return chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve immediately.
