How to Make Balsamic Glazed Chicken Sandwiches With Goat Cheese

1. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon red wine, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
2. Reduce heat and simmer until the mixture is reduced to 1/2 cup (about 10-15 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3. While the balsamic glaze simmers, spray a large non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat.
4. Season two boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each) with salt and pepper. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and browned.
5. Remove chicken from skillet and cover to keep warm.
6. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet. Add 1/2 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced, and cook, stirring frequently, until caramelized (about 5-7 minutes).
7. Remove onions from skillet.
8. Thinly slice the chicken breasts.
9. Spread a thin layer of 2 ounces goat cheese (or cream cheese) on each roll.
10. Divide the sliced chicken between the rolls and top with the caramelized onions.
11. Drizzle each sandwich with the balsamic glaze and top with fresh arugula, if desired.
