Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Marinade the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken and ensure each piece is well coated. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
- Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 200°C (400°F).

- Let It Rest: Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
For deeper flavor, marinate the chicken overnight. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
