Balsamic Marinated Chicken Breasts

Recipe View In a bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, water, dried minced onion, crushed red pepper flakes, dried minced garlic, salt, ground black pepper, paprika, crushed dried rosemary, dried parsley flakes, chili powder, and dried oregano. Pour the marinade into a resealable plastic bag. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Add the chicken breasts to the bag, ensuring they are fully coated with the marinade. Squeeze out any excess air and seal the bag tightly. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the chicken. (30 minutes - overnight)

Recipe View Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or lightly grease a broiler pan. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and shake off any excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Place the marinated chicken breasts onto the prepared baking sheet. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the chicken breasts are golden brown and cooked through. Ensure that the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) when measured with an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken. (30-40 minutes)

Recipe View Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving. This helps to retain the juices and ensures a more tender and flavorful result.
