Cooking Time
35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 skinless boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 C balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme

Instructions

  1. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with garlic salt and pepper, rubbing the spices in lightly to make them stick.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and seasoned chicken breasts when it reaches temperature. Brown the chicken on each side, usually about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  3. Slice the onions to thin slivers and add to pan. Cook and stir until onion is browned, 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. Reduce heat to medium low and pour diced tomatoes and balsamic vinegar over chicken, then add the rest of the spices: basil, oregano, rosemary and thyme. Cover the pan with a lid and simmer until chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165* F (74* C).
