I'm all about easy meals, and this one was super easy and full of flavor! Serve with your favorite chicken sides; I chose rice and baked asparagus. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS 1 Pkg of Thin Sliced Chicken Breast (1 Lb approx) Salt & Pepper to taste 2 Tbsp Olive Oil 1 Tsp Garlic, Minced 1/4 Cup Balsamic Vinegar 2 Tbsp Honey 1/2 Cup Chicken Broth DIRECTIONS Season chicken with salt & pepper In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and saute for about 3 minutes per side, or until lightly golden on each side. Remove from skillet and cover to keep warm. Add garlic to skillet and continue to saute for 1 minute. Pour in vinegar. Stir in honey and bring to a boil. Add broth and return to a boil; reduce heat slightly and add chicken back into skillet. Simmer 2-3 minutes. Sauce will slightly thicken as it reduces. Drizzle balsamic-honey sauce over top of chicken when serving.

Sooooo at the end of last year my body began to fall apart, my health was failing, my weight was uncontrollable and a huge part of it was wrong diet. Not bad diet, I don't eat badly, just the wrong foods. My gluten intolerance was wreaking havoc on my body and my life... So end of year = new start = new foods! This isn't really a recipe per se but just a breakfast meal idea! Enjoy!
