I loves the balsamic. One of my cooking teachers told me that really old (like 40 year old) balsamic vinegar is drank like a shot. I'd like to try it sometime, but it doesn't come cheap.
Here's a recipe I threw together awhile ago, I don't have exact amounts because I never measure anything.
Balsamic Chicken
- 2 Boneless Chicken Breasts, cut into strips
- 1 Tomato, diced
- 1 Medium sized Red Onion, diced
- About 3/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar
- Rosemary, Thyme, Garlic, Salt, Pepper, Olive Oil
- Cut the chicken into strips and let it sit in the balsamic for about 20-30 minutes.
- Heat the olive oil in a pan, and saute the garlic for a minute or two, then add the chicken.
- When the chicken is about halfway cooked, add the balsamic, tomato, onion, and spices.
- Cook until the balsamic has reduced by about half, serve over rice.
Whenever I BBQ Steak, I always throw some red onion and green pepper onto a sheet of foil on the grill with some oil and balsamic and let them cook for a few minutes, then toss them on the steak, great stuff.
