Grilled
Balsamic Chicken Pasta
3 boneless chicken breast
1 cup of balsamic vinegar
1 onion, chopped
8-10 cloves of garlic
8 roma tomatoes
3/4 of a package of whole wheat pasta
2 oz. of fresh basil
sea salt and pepper
Directions:
Step 1: Heat up the grill and season the chicken breast with sea salt and cracked pepper. Once, the grill is hot, add the chicken breast and cook thoroughly on both sides.
Step 2: Put some oil in a pan with your spray bottle and allow to get hot. Add the onion and saute until clear. Chop up the garlic, add to the onion and saute for 1 minute. Heat up a small sauce pan and add the cup of balsamic vinegar. Allow it to reduce by half.
Step 3: Place a pot filled 3/4 of the way with water on the stove and heat to a boil. With your spray bottle add some oil so that the pasta will not stick together while cooking. Slice the tomatoes and put in the pan with the onion and garlic. Cook the tomatoes until tender so you can smash them with a spoon.
Step 4: Once the chicken is done, slice and put it to the side. By this time your balsamic vinegar should be almost reduced by half. You can add some organic sugar if you like to make it sweeter. Put it on a lower heat and allow the vinegar to thicken into a syrup. Your pasta should also be finished by this time (usually 13 minutes on medium temp.). Put the pasta into a strainer and run some cold water through it to stop the cooking process.
Step 5: The tomatoes in the pan should be almost like a thick sauce (if not add a little water). Add the fresh basil (I got mine from my garden!) and cook for 2-5 minutes. Once it is done, grab a large mixing bowl and put the pasta, the tomato and basil mixture, the sliced chicken breast and then the reduced balsamic vinegar. Mix together and it is done.
