Ingredients
-
1 Large Chicken Breast
-
2 tsp Black Garlic Infused Sea Salt
-
1 Lemon
-
1 Tbsp plus 1 tsp Sicilian Lemon Infused Olive Oil, divided
-
3 Cloves Garlic, minced
-
¼ cup Chicken Broth
-
1 Tbsp Wild Garlic Dried Herb Blend
-
½ cup Half & Half
-
1 Tbsp Barrel Aged Dark Thick Sweet Balsamic
-
2 Tbsp Parsley, chopped
Directions
Butterfly chicken breast and season chicken generously with 2 tsp Black Garlic Infused Sea Salt. Let sit 15-30 minutes before cooking.
Prepare lemon by zesting the lemon and setting the zest aside for garnish. Then, slice the lemon into thin rounds and set aside.
Heat a skillet to medium heat. Add 1 Tbsp Sicilian Lemon Infused Olive Oil to the pan and once simmering, add chicken and cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook for another 4 minutes on the other side.
Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside. Wipe out the oil in the pan.
Heat remaining 1 tsp Sicilian Lemon Infused Olive Oil over medium heat in the same skillet. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add chicken broth, Wild Garlic Dried Herb Blend, half and half, Barrel Aged Dark Thick Sweet Balsamic, and 4 lemon rounds and stir to combine.
Return the chicken to the pan and let simmer, until the sauce thickens slightly and the chicken is done cooking, about 4-5 minutes.
Remove lemon rounds and plate chicken with sauce. Top with lemon zest and parsley. Enjoy!

I prepared this dish last night and it is delicious. The sauce has a light tomato flavor. The Basil Barrel Aged Balsamic really elevates the recipe.
