Main Ingredients

  • 12 oz boneless chicken breasts or tenders
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil For marinating
  • 1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar Can substitute with red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon crushed dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon thyme
  • ½ teaspoon minced garlic
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt Optional
  • Dash black pepper Optional
  • 1 tsp olive oil For cooking

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Slice the chicken into thin pieces.

  • Place the bag in the refrigerator and allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 day.

Cooking

  • Heat 1 tsp of olive oil in a skillet or pan.
  • Cook the chicken until all sides are golden brown, and the internal temperature reads 165 degrees (this takes about 7-10 minutes).
  • Be sure to discard the marinade.
