- · ½ cup chopped shallots
- · 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- · 1 cup Coca-Cola
- · 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
- · 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken cutlets
- · 2 cloves garlic, minced
- · 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
- · ½ teaspoon salt
- · ½ teaspoon black pepper
- · Fresh basil leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Cook shallots in 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat 3 minutes or until tender. Add Coca-Cola and vinegar; simmer over low heat 10 minutes or until reduced to 2/3 cup. Reserve ¼cup in separate bowl and set aside.
- Place chicken on nonstick baking sheet. Rub with garlic, chopped basil, salt and pepper; drizzle with remaining oil.
- Grill chicken on a lightly greased grill grid coated with nonstick cooking spray 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until chicken is done, basting with reserved ¼ cup Coca-Cola/balsamic mixture. Serve immediately with remaining balsamic mixture. Garnish with fresh basil, if desired.
- Be sure to use chicken cutlets in this recipe. Chicken cutlets are boneless, skinless sections of the chicken breast which have been tenderized. Cutlets cook quicker than chicken breasts.
