• Yields: 8 cups
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 44.37 ml balsamic vinegar
• 14.79 ml Dijon mustard
• 14.79 ml honey or 14.79 ml agave syrup
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 680.38 g boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 236.59 ml fresh basil leaf
• 946.36 ml baby arugula, roughly chopped
• 59.14 ml sun-dried tomato packed in oil, roughly chopped

directions

1. Make the marinade by whisking together the vinegar, mustard, honey, garlic, pepper, and oil in a small sauce pan. Bring to a boil and simmer until slightly thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Set aside.
2. Put the chicken breasts in a heavy plastic bag and pound to an even 1/2" thickness. Grill the chicken on a well-seasoned, medium-hot grill until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice across the grain. Toss the chicken slices with the cooked marinade.
3. Roughly chop the basil and arugula and toss with the sun-dried tomatoes. Arrange the chicken slices on a platter and top with the basil-arugula mix.

With just the 2 of us, I cut this recipe in half but otherwise followed it right on down, & was had a wonderfully flavorful meal! As much chicken breasts as we eat, I always enjoy finding new, interesting & lip-smacking ways of preparing 'em! Thanks for sharing yours! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]
