Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • boneless skinless chicken breasts (approximately 8 oz each or 225g)
  • 2 large onions thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar optional
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
  3. Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until they’re fully cooked and have beautiful grill marks.
  4. While the chicken is grilling, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
  5. Add the thinly sliced onions to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until they become golden brown and caramelized, about 20-25 minutes.
  6. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the caramelized onions and stir to combine. If desired, add a teaspoon of brown sugar for extra sweetness.
  7. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
  8. Serve the grilled chicken topped with the luscious caramelized onions.

Notes

TIPS
  1. To keep the chicken juicy, avoid overcooking it on the grill.
  2. If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought caramelized onions, but making them from scratch enhances the flavor.
