TOTAL TIME
1
Place chicken breasts between two sheets of parchment paper and lightly pound them until they are all of equal thickness.
2
Season chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
3
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
4
Fry the chicken breasts on both sides until golden brown and thoroughly cooked, about 5-6 minutes per side. Once cooked, transfer them to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
5
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Fry the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
6
Add cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes, or until they begin to soften. Turn off the heat, and stir in the chopped basil. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
7
Place the chicken back into the skillet, and spoon the tomato-garlic mixture over the chicken breasts.
8
In a small saucepan, bring the balsamic vinegar to a simmer over low heat, until it thickens into a glaze.
9
Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the chicken before serving. Enjoy with pasta, rice, salad, or garlic bread!
