Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 4 pieces Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts The juicy centerpiece that absorbs the balsamic flavor beautifully.
  • 3 cloves Minced Garlic Adds a rich, savory punch; garlic powder works too if you’re in a hurry.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Ensures a luscious roast; feel free to swap with avocado oil for a lighter option.
  • 1/2 cup Balsamic Vinegar The star ingredient that infuses everything with tangy sweetness.
  • 2 tablespoons Honey Balances out the vinegar’s acidity; agave syrup is a great vegan substitute.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Essential seasoning for bringing out all the flavors.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pepper Essential seasoning for bringing out all the flavors.
For the Potatoes
  • 1 pound Baby Potatoes Tender yet crispy when roasted.
Optional Veggies
  • Fresh Vegetables Consider broccoli, bell peppers, or zucchini.
  • Carrots Try roasting alongside for a sweet addition.

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Cut the baby potatoes in half and toss them with olive oil and Italian herbs.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, honey, and olive oil.
  5. On a greased baking sheet, arrange chicken and potatoes, then drizzle with balsamic sauce.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) and potatoes are tender.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the balsamic sauce for 30 minutes before roasting. You can mix and match the optional veggies for variety.
