"This chicken is good with either rice or pasta. Green beans make a nice side dish."

Review: harpo - Nov. 22, 2006: Just a note to those who aren't fond of balsamic vinegar. Try adding some chicken stock in with the vinegar to equal the 1/2 cup measurement. It's a great way to cut down on the bite of the vinegar but, still adds great flavor. So, those who might give up on this recipe, try it this way and see what you think.

Ingredients:
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

1/4 tp. Garlic powder
2 pinches salt
ground black pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

Mix together garlic powder, salt & pepper

1. Season both sides of chicken breasts with garlic powder mixture.

2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook seasoned chicken breasts until chicken is browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Add onion; cook and stir until onion is browned, 3 to 4 minutes.

3. Pour diced tomatoes and balsamic vinegar over chicken; season with basil, oregano, rosemary and thyme. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
