I don't have a link to the balsamic chicken recipe as that website still isn't working.. but here it is for any interested:
Ingredients
¼ cup olive oil
½ cup balsamic vinegar
½ tsp. Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, minced
¼ tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast
¼ cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
6 oz. spaghetti
1 oz. Parmesan cheese
1 Heirloom tomato, diced into small pieces.
Chicken stock as needed
¼ cup reserved pasta water
In a small bowl mix together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard and garlic. Place chicken in a Ziploc bag and add marinade. Place chicken in the fridge and let marinate for about 2 hours.
Preheat grill to medium high heat. Place chicken on grill and reserve marinade. Grill chicken for about 6-8 minutes on each side until cooked through and thermometer reads 165. Remove chicken from the grill. Meanwhile, cook spaghetti and reserve ¼ cup of the pasta water.
Place reserved marinade in a small pot. Bring to a boil and cook for 10 minutes. Add chopped basil. If it thickens up on you add a little bit of chicken stock to thin it out. Mix the cooked pasta with the balsamic sauce.
Add tomatoes. Mix in the reserved pasta water. Slice the chicken. Place pasta in a serving bowl and top with the sliced chicken. Shave or grate Parmesan cheese over top.
