Vanilla Balsamic Chicken Recipes

Sweet broiled chicken breast

High Protein, Low Fat Heart Healthy Food Option

Pasta with an infusion of greek flavors

This is a dish I came up with on my quest for low sodium meals for my boyfriend. I was in the mood for something Italian... it turned out very moist and flavorful. Leftovers freeze well.

The marinade in this recipe can be easily altered to suit your taste. Try adding a clove or two of minced garlic and a sprinkle of fresh rosemary to finish. It pairs nicely with roasted potatoes, a green side salad and fresh fruit.

heart healthy, and loaded with antioxidants!! boiling your pasta in green tea gives you similar benefits to drinking it, and gives the pasta a really nice flavor, almost like spinach pasta. to reduce the calories even more, grill the chicken rather then pan frying

Fruit and spinach are a perfect pair in this fresh springtime salad.

Chop garlic very fine.

Add dijon to the garlic and whisk in the olive oil.
Add the juice of a lemon and whisk again.
Add the balsamic vinegar and whisk until an emulsion has occurred.

Asian vinaigrette: Substitute sesame oil (decrease to 1 T) for the Olive oil and soy sauce for the lemon. Use Rice vinegar instead of balsamic and add grated fresh ginger.

You can change the flavor by experimenting with different oils (I love walnut, unrefined peanut and avocado oil) and different acidic bases (lemon juice, different vinegars, grapefruit juice, etc) and omitting garlic to tone down the flavor as well. Be creative in your approach to the flavor and use the best ingredients you can afford.

Tangy balsamic and sweet dates make for a perfect combination in this easy marinade! Marinate chicken in this sauce overnight for a flavorful entree.

A delicious and simple whole chicken recipe for the slow cooker that is simmered in a zesty sauce combination of balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, and lemon juice, with honey, garlic, and sesame and olive oils. Delicious served over jasmine rice!"

Grilled

I love this recipe, I made this up to flavor up some chicken and eat it al the time since I have been dieting. It is so good! I hope you all think so too! I like this the best with the chicken cooked on the grill but you can do whatever method you like to cook the chicken.

The best of the garden with a balsamic glaze

Roasted asparagus with balsamic and Parmesan

While it's not as light as a normal cake, the denseness contributes to the dark chocolate feel. It sparkles throughout with the taste of orange, and because it's not a super-sweet cake, the icings provide just the right accent without being cloying.

This is the most delicious recipe I have tried lately....I am not a fan of portobello mushrooms BUT I cannot get enough of this. The nutritional facts are based on 4 servings and all the fat comes from the olive oil so at least it is good fat! I promise you will LOVE this dish !

Crunchy almonds and sweet caramelized onions dress up your favorite green beans. A drizzle of balsamic adds a tangy contrast.

I got this from Recipezaar.com. I'm putting it in my Sparks to make it easier to record it for my food log.

Easy to cook. Left overs are great cold the next day.
