Delicious Strawberry Basil Chicken

Today, I am excited to share a unique and flavorful recipe with you all: Strawberry Basil Chicken! This dish is perfect for a summer evening with its sweet and savory combination that will surely wow your taste buds.

Ingredients:

  • 2 chicken breasts (approx. 400g)
  • 1 cup of fresh strawberries, sliced (approx. 150g)
  • 1/2 cup of fresh basil leaves, chopped (approx. 25g)
  • 2 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp of honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • skillet
  • spatula
  • measuring cup
  • knife

Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side until they are cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the balsamic vinegar, honey, strawberries, and basil. Cook for about 5 minutes until the strawberries have softened and released their juices. Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it with the strawberry basil mixture.

Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for another 2-3 minutes before serving. The aroma of the sweet strawberries and aromatic basil will fill your kitchen, making your mouth water in anticipation.

Once ready, plate the Strawberry Basil Chicken and garnish with additional basil leaves for a fresh burst of flavor.

This dish serves 2 with each serving weighing approximately 300g. One serving of this Strawberry Basil Chicken is around 350 calories.

One tip to make this dish even more delightful is to sprinkle some feta cheese on top before serving. The tanginess of the cheese complements the sweetness of the strawberries perfectly.

I hope you give this unique recipe a try and enjoy it as much as I do! Feel free to customize it with your favorite herbs or fruits to make it your own. Happy cooking!
