One Pot Balsamic Chicken Meal

Today I’m sharing a divine recipe with you all that will be perfect on busy evenings. This is a one pot meal that just makes life simple! With fresh ingredients which are full of flavours, you use just one pot to combine them into some deliciousness!

Listen, life is busy so when I can break things down into manageable ways for myself I grab at them. One pot means having to do less dishes and that makes me happy. We enjoyed the balsamic flavour with the compliments of shallots, rosemary and of course that golden chicken skin. I hope you dig this recipe as much as my family does and if you’re looking for more one-pot meals make sure to check out my friends Stacey (ThisLilPiglet.net) and Randa (TheBewitchinKitchen.com) who are joining me in creating one-pot themed meals this week.
