TUSCAN BALSAMIC CHICKEN

This post is not sponsored by Pasolivo, but I did receive complimentary products from the company. I am sharing the products with you today because I genuinely love the quality of their premium olive oils and vinegars.
Balsamic chicken served over cauliflower mash with broccoli.
I’ve been preparing chicken like this for years — but have never posted the recipe all on it’s own!
The first time I made it, I didn’t even know it was a “thing.” We were staying at the beach, and knowing the groceries I could buy there were limited, I had brought along a few spices, some olive oil, and some balsamic vinegar (a staple, right my friends?!) — and when I decided to see what would happen when I cooked the chicken along with some vinegar, I was amazed by the results — an incredibly moist chicken breast, in the BEST sticky sweet glaze. Never turned back!
My love for this easy balsamic chicken was heightened recently when I received the most amazing olive oil and balsamic vinegar from Pasolivo. I connected with this company from Paso Robles because I have family in the area and know what an incredible climate and beautiful region it is.
They sent me a Tuscan Olive Oil and Tuscan Balsamic Vinegar — both incredibly high quality.
The Tuscan Balsamic has a small amount of sugar, and is complimented with blackberries and oregano. If I thought balsamic on it’s own was perfection, I don’t know what to call this! The house immediately smelled like summer when I started simmering the chicken.

An easy but extra special chicken recipe. Use this balsamic glazed chicken over a salad, on rice, or over mashed cauliflower or veggies.
