It’s a never ending quandary, what to do with that chicken?
Grilled Northern California Avocado Chicken
3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup honey
4 cloves garlic minced
2 Tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons italian seasoning
Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 slices mozzarella cheese
2 avocados diced
3 roma tomatoes diced
1/4 cup fresh chopped basil
Balsamic vinegar, for drizzling
In a medium sized bowl whisk the balsamic vinegar, honey, garlic, olive oil, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper, to taste. Add the chicken and coat. Marinate for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl add the avocado, tomato, basil and salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
Heat the grill to medium high heat. Grill the chicken on each side about 6 minutes or until cooked throughout and no longer pink. (Cook a little longer if using thighs or legs) Top with mozzarella cheese and avocado, tomato basil mixture. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and serve immediately.
