Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tsp fresh rosemary finely chopped
  • 2 tsp fresh thyme finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, thyme, and salt until all ingredients are evenly dispersed.
  • Marinate chicken breasts for at least 2 hours (overnight is best).
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
  • Place chicken breasts onto prepared baking sheet and spoon any extra marinade evenly over chicken.
  • Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Notes

  • Dried thyme and rosemary may be used instead of fresh, use about 1/3 of the amount.
  • Chicken thighs, tenders, etc. may be used instead of breasts, if desired.
