Lucky for me, it was a hit with the hubs and Pinky too. <\/p>\n<p>Several weeks ago I found a yummy sounding chicken recipe and like I always do, I saved the link to my favorites\/bookmarks.  You should see the amount of links I have in there.  It is quite ridiculous.  I may be a link-a-holic, but I don\u2019t go to meetings.  The good news is that it is organized into categories, so now it only takes me 20 minutes to find something that I&#8217;m looking for.  Just kidding.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight I had a craving for domesticated fowl, so I dove into my long list and found the Balsamic Chicken Thighs recipe, which sounded perfect.  One problem though. I didn&#8217;t have any chicken thighs on hand.  We usually only have chicken breasts, so I figured I could substitute without any dire consequences.<\/p>\n<p><a href='http:\/\/ruleroftheelves.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/89135876_4733f0f728_oa.jpg' title='89135876_4733f0f728_oa.jpg'><img src='http:\/\/ruleroftheelves.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/89135876_4733f0f728_oa.jpg' alt='89135876_4733f0f728_oa.jpg' \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here is the breakdown of the recipe my way:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Balsamic Chicken<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><u>Ingredients<\/u><br \/>\n2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts<br \/>\nsalt and pepper, to taste<br \/>\n1\/4 cup chopped onion<br \/>\n1\/4 cup balsamic vinegar <\/p>\n<p>Spray large frying pan with cooking spray and preheat.<br \/>\nRinse and pat dry chicken.<br \/>\nSeason with salt and pepper.<br \/>\nBrown well on all sides.<br \/>\nCover, reduce heat to medium and cook for approximately 25 minutes, or until chicken is done depending on size.<br \/>\nAdd onions, cook for 2-3 minutes, until they soften.<br \/>\nStir in balsamic vinegar, cook for 1 more minute, turn chicken to coat thoroughly.<br \/>\nSpoon sauce over and serve. <\/p>\n<p>I served this recipe with a simple salad tossed with a Vidalia Onion dressing. Filling and delicious!  I really can&#8217;t relay how tasty this chicken is, however, when trying to please a picky 5 year old, having something they will gobble up is a dream come true.
