Balsamic chicken with green beans is one of our favorite quick and easy recipes. The most important trick to this recipe is to ensure you are using the highest quality (not most expensive) olive oil and balsamic vinegar, available at EVOO Marketplace. Just like all balsamics and olive oils are NOT created equal neither is chicken quality. We have found locally the highest quality chicken to be Red Bird. This recipe is extremely quick and easy to prepare. Enjoy!!
