Grilled Chicken Breasts in Sage Vinaigrette
MARINATE OVERNIGHT!!!

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Note: To make a light sauce for the chicken, double the marinade ingredients.

to low and simmer for 2 minutes, whisking constantly. Drizzle over the chicken
or serve alongside.
