Balsamic Glazed Chicken
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 cup chicken stock
2/3 cup balsamic vinegar (use a good AGED one!)
1 tablespoon honey
4 tablespoons green onion (spring onions) tops, thinly sliced
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning and sprinkling pepper equally on each side of chicken, about 10 minutes or until slightly brown on all sides.
Remove chicken from pan and drain off any excess oil.
Add the chopped garlic to the skillet and saute over medium heat for 2 minutes.
Stir in tomato paste and slowly add the chicken stock, scraping to dissolve any bits clinging to bottom of pan.
Increase heat to medium-high; add vinegar and honey and rapidly boil for 3 minutes to reduce liquid to one cup.
Return chicken to pan; reduce heat to medium.
Cook, turning, about 30 minutes or until liquid thickens and becomes a dark mahogany glaze and chicken is done.

Serve with just a simple salad ie. rocket, favorite low fat dressing and couple of shavings of parmesan
or steamed greens, with a little olive oil, salt and pepper... You can always load up on the greens...0 -
