I had never tried cooking with balsamic vinegar before - the result was a smoothly tangy sauce that we very much enjoyed. From a TimeLife mailcard series.

Ingredients
  • 6 chicken cutlets (abaout 1-1/2 lbs)
  • 1 medium, sliced, rings separated
  • 8oz sliced white mushrooms
  • 1/4 - 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1-1/2 C chicken broth
  • 4 Tablespoons plain flour
  • 2 T lemon juice
  • 2 T balsamic vinegar
  • 1-1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions
  1. Heat oven to 450.
  2. Pour oil into large roasting pan or 3qt glass casserole. Add chicken, onion, and mushrooms, turning to coat with oil.
  3. Bake 5 minutes; turn chicken over and stir vegetables. Bake 5 more minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, combine flour and broth. Add lemon juice, vinegar, and seasonings.
  5. Add broth mixture to pan, cover pan with foil, and bake 10 more minutes.
  6. Remove foil, stir vegetables, and bake 10 more minutes.
  7. Heat broiler. Turn chicken over. Place pan 6 inches from heat (if possible) and broil until chicken starts to turn golden, 3-5 minutes.
  8. The gravy goes well with mashed potatoes, and yeast rolls with honey butter would be excellent with this meal.
  9. We scraped the pan of every morsel!

I have used balsamic vinegar in salad dressings quite a bit this past year and love the flavor. This recipe sounds quite delicious and I will definitely have to try it.


I wish people would cook more with balsamic - it is a natural tenderizer - and when condensed - (which you can by already done)and added to sauces create one heck of a complex taste to your already fantastic dishes... great post you got here - I gave it my rating..I will try your version very soon! I am glad you discovered balsamic...I have a few dishes that include balsamic vinegar if you are interested.... happy cooking and sharing recipes with ya!


Sounds delicious. Going to have it next week for sure


I have a good chicken balsamic recipe but this sounds good also so am going to try it soon as I do love balsamic vinegar.


Sweetwords, I have recently discovered the joy of cooking with balsamic, too - LOVE the stuff! This recipe sounds very tasty (and easy and quick, which is always a plus in my book these days!)...thanks so much for sharing your new "find" (don't you just love it when you try something new and it's so delicious you want to lick the dish clean?!?!)...Krum

Thanks for the sweet comments, all ya'll! And for the feedback on the balsamic vinegar. Definitely plan to use more in future!


I made this tonight and it was great! I added 2 cloves of sliced garlic and made some rosemary mashed potatoes for the side.
Bottom line, TERRIFIC!
