Quick Honey Basil Chicken
Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 6 ounces chicken tenderloin strips
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar, or more to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat the skillet by placing it over high heat, allowing the olive oil to reach its optimal temperature. Prepare the chicken by sprinkling it with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Sear the chicken in the hot skillet, gently tossing it to ensure even cooking, until it reaches a safe internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit, approximately 3-5 minutes. Combine the fresh basil leaves, drizzle of honey, and a splash of balsamic vinegar into the skillet with the chicken, stirring to combine. Continue cooking for an additional minute, allowing the flavors to meld together seamlessly.
