This Super Easy 3-Ingredient Chicken is a quick, delicious solution for busy weeknights!
Equipment
- Non-Stick Skillet
- Measuring Cups
- Spatula or tongs
- Cutting Board
- Knife
Ingredients
- 1 cup chunky salsa (sugar-free)
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Start by rinsing the boneless, skinless chicken breast under cold water. Pat it dry with paper towels, then season it lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
- In a non-stick skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breast to the skillet. Sear it for about 4-5 minutes on one side until it's golden brown.
- Flip the chicken over and pour in the chunky salsa and balsamic vinegar. Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Let it simmer for about 10-12 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it. Drizzle with the salsa-balsamic sauce from the skillet. Serve it alongside your favorite sides for a complete meal!
Notes
- For a low-carb option, serve with steamed vegetables.
- Ensure your salsa is gluten-free for a gluten-free meal.
- To avoid overcooking, monitor the cooking time closely.
