Maple and Balsamic Chicken


Thursday night dinner... I got your covered :)

This recipe is one of my favorites for a quick weeknight... add a veggie and some brown rice or quinoa and you have a balanced dinner! Notice the addition of Low Sodium Tamari instead of conventional soy ~ it's gluten free and and a much better option as far as sodium content.

Here's the recipe... hope you try it out!!

~2 – 3 pounds of chicken breast
~2T Olive Oil
~2T Low Sodium Tamari Sauce
~2T Maple Syrup
~¼ cup Balsamic Vinegar
~2 garlic cloves, minced

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Put the chicken breast into a roasting pan.

3. Mix remaining ingredients for the marinade. Stir and pour over chicken. Turn the
chicken to fully coat.

4. Bake for 20-25 minutes depending on thickness of your
chicken breasts. I rotate the chicken breasts one time throughout the cooking
process.

5. Once finished pour the remaining juice into a sauce pan and put on a low
heat. Allow the juice to reduce to a gravy stirring frequently. Pour the gravy over
the chicken.

6.Enjoy!
