Servings: 4 -6 servings
Ingredients
- FOR THE MARINADE:
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
- 3/4 cup olive oil
- 3 Tbsp brown sugar
- 2 Tbsp steak seasoning
- 2 tsp fresh rosemary minced (can substitute 1/2 tsp dried rosemary leaves)
- FOR THE GLAZE:
- 8 slices bacon chopped
- 3/4 cup honey
- 3 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 Tbsp hot sauce
Instructions
- MARINATE THE CHICKEN:
- To a large ziploc bag, add the marinade ingredients, twist with your hand (or zip closed) and shake to combine well. Pierce chicken breasts with a fork a few times, add to bag, seal, place on a plate and refrigerate for 2 hours, or up to 2 days.
- MAKE THE GLAZE:
- Chop bacon into small slices and add to a large sauce pan. Cook until crisp, remove to a paper towel lined plate. Drain grease from the saucepan, but do NOT wipe it clean.
- Add remaining glaze ingredients, whisk to combine. Heat over MED heat until it bubbles up. Add cooked bacon and cook for 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and set aside to cool. It will thicken as it cools.
- COOK THE CHICKEN:
- Preheat grill or large skillet on MED-HIGH heat. Add a drizzle of olive or vegetable oil and cook chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and juices run clear.
- Top chicken with bacon glaze and enjoy!
