Chocolate Chicken

Thank you! CrossFit LA Sweet Cheeks Food Blog

1/2 kg chicken breasts
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon oregano
1/2 cup vegetable broth
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 ounce dark chocolate
Fresh chives, chopped

Pour vegetable broth in a medium sized skillet and bring to a simmer. As the broth simmers, rub the salt, pepper and oregano into the chicken breasts. Add the chicken to the skillet, cover and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until the chicken is done, 8-15 minutes depending upon the thickness of your chicken.

As the chicken simmers, pour the balsamic vinegar in a small pan and cook over medium high heat. Stir constantly. You want to cook the balsamic until it is bubbly and just very slightly thickened. This takes about 5-7 minutes. Then turn off the heat and add the chocolate, stirring everything together until the chocolate is melted.

Once the chicken has finished cooking, remove from the skillet and set aside. Add the balsamic chocolate to the skillet. Turn up the heat to high, mix everything together and continue cooking until the sauce bubbles, about 2 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour over chicken.
