Cooking In Stilettos/ Tried and True Recipes

Balsamic BBQ Chicken

I rarely cook steak in the house – probably because I have the fire alarms from hell. My poor neighbors know when I’m in a cooking frenzy because they hear the constant “BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP” from those daggone alarms and I’m running around like a banshee with a broom trying to shut one down when one of the other two alarms decides to get a word in edgewise. Drives me batty, I swear. I used to have a neighbor that would text “Whatcha Making” whenever they would hear the alarms go off – talk about a dinner bell, right?

This recipe beats any bottled BBQ sauce, hands down. It’s so simple to prepare and the flavor is phenomenal. I usually use it when I do a baked chicken and it’s all bubbly and caramelized from the oven – delish. Served with a side salad or even some jazzed up quinoa and you have a healthy dinner that was so easy to prepare but, the likelihood of leftovers are pretty much nil.  It’s that good.

So – the next time you need an easy weeknight meal and you don’t want to use the store-bought with who knows what ingredients are in it, whip this sauce up and, if asked for the brand of sauce you used, you can say “Oh – this sauce – it’s not from a bottle – it’s something I quickly whipped up.” It’s up to you if you want to let them in on your Balsamic BBQ Sauce recipe.
