This juicy one pan balsamic chicken combines seared chicken with a tangy-sweet balsamic garlic glaze, cherry tomatoes, and herbs — all in one skillet, ready in 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • ⅓ cup balsamic vinegar

  • 1 tbsp honey or brown sugar

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes

  • Fresh parsley or basil for garnish

Instructions

  • Season chicken with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken 4–5 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.

  • Add onion to the pan. Cook 5–7 minutes until soft. Stir in garlic and cook 30 seconds.

  • Add balsamic vinegar and honey. Scrape the pan and simmer 2–3 minutes.

  • Add cherry tomatoes and return chicken to the pan. Cover and simmer 8–10 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.

  • Let rest 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve.

Notes

  • Use bone-in chicken for more flavor — adjust cook time.

  • Add spinach or mushrooms to bulk it up.

  • Reheats well for meal prep.
