Balsamic Vinegar Chicken & Noodles image

My Boyfriends favorite, and really easy to make. Left overs are just as good. I make this for a crowd with steamed carrots and a side salad for a complete healthy meal. NOTE: for those with Gluten Allergies or Celiac, this can work with GF noodles and draining them before adding them to the pot with the chicken, however I recommend half cooking the noodles before trying to add them to the chicken... otherwise the chicken gets tough by the time the noodles are cooked.

Time 40m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb chicken breasts or 1 lb chicken tenders
4 cups balsamic vinegar
2 cups red wine
1 pint cherry tomatoes
4 garlic cloves
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 lb angel hair pasta
baby fresh mozzarella cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Marinade Chicken in Wine, Olive oil and Balsamic Vinegar 20-30min.
  • Peel and Crush Garlic and toss in pan with the Chicken and Marinade.
  • Bring to a boil, simmer for ten minutes.
  • Cover and set aside for another 20 min while you prepare any sides or salads (this step can be skipped if you are in a hurry).
  • Break Angel Hair in half or thirds.
  • Bring Chicken back to a boil (if you need more liquid just add equal parts of Wine and Balsamic).
  • Add Pasta and cherry tomatos to pot.
  • Cook Pasta according to package directions but do not drain, the starch from the pasta thickens the sauce. (Gluten Free option** please see note at the top).
  • Serve on plate next to veggies or alone in a bowl, garnish with baby mozzarella.
