Ingredients
- 4 Chicken breasts, boneless skinless

- 1/2 cup Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1/4 cup Olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, and dried oregano. Season with black pepper and salt.
- Place the chicken breasts in a shallow baking dish and pour the marinade over them, turning to coat.
- Let the chicken sit in the marinade for 10–15 minutes if possible.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, checking for an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) at the thickest part.
- Remove and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Use low-sodium soy sauce if you’re watching salt. For sweetness, add honey or maple syrup to the marinade. Pound uneven breasts for uniform cooking.
