Cherry Balsamic Reduction

Method

Marinade Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add chicken breasts and coat well. Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

Prepare Cherry Balsamic Reduction

    Make the Reduction

    In a saucepan, combine cherries, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 15 minutes. Set aside.

Roast Potatoes

    Roast the Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss fingerling potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

Sauté Asparagus

  1. 4

    Cook Asparagus

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add asparagus, salt, and pepper, and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and grill for 6-8 minutes per side or until fully cooked.
