One Pan Balsamic Chicken

Are you ready for Spring yet? I for one am excited for all the yummy meals that I get to enjoy out in the sun on my patio. This year I want to share more savory recipes that are light, easy to prepare and taste delicious. While desserts are very prominent on my blog, people who follow me closely know how much I love cooking savory foods. I like to cook from scratch using lots of fresh ingredients. 

Thankfully I am a 5 minute drive away from Sprouts which allows me to get fresh produce whenever I need to. It’s convenient and whenever I go to Sprouts offers a Sale on veggies, fruits or other produce.

If you are not a fan of broccoli, feel free to use carrots, zucchini, bell peppers, etc. Anything works with this tasty flavor combination. 

For less cooking time, use boneless chicken or chicken tenders and add more veggies instead of potatoes. A great way to safe even more time if you are in a hurry.
