Balsamic BBQ Sauce Glazed Chicken

KristineDinner in a Dash, RecipesLeave a Comment

So happy when BBQ season finally arrives. I want to add some more great recipes to my BBQ arsenal this year and this Balsamic BBQ Sauce Glazed Chicken is a great place to start. I’m not a fan of plain chicken, and sometimes I’m not in the mood for the standard BBQ sauce. This sauce is so mouth watering and easy to make and is not only great on chicken, but would be fabulous on just about any protein, as well as grilled tofu (will be trying that next!)

The sauce is so easy to put together (simmering it together in 1 small pot), and tastes so much better than the store bought BBQ sauce I’ve tried. While I still don’t mind the convenience of store bought, I loved the flavor of this so much, especially considering how few ingredients it is!

If you give this recipe a try I’d love you to come report back in the comments! I hope you find it just as delicious as I do!
