Tasty 30-Minute One-Pan Balsamic Chicken Recipe May Save the Day Poultry Dinner

On busy weeknights, easy chicken dinners often save the day. This one-pan balsamic vinaigrette skillet chicken recipe is as easy as it is delicious.

With just a few ingredients and minimal prep, the chicken turns out tender and juicy, and dinner is on the table in just about 30 minutes.

I like to use both chicken breasts and chicken thighs because that balance works for me, but you could use just breasts or just thighs if you prefer. We enjoy this delicious chicken dinner recipe over rice, to soak up the delicious sauce, and with whatever fresh vegetables we have on hand.
