Balsamic-Glazed Chicken

This balsamic-glazed chicken is rich, tangy, and slightly sweet, thanks to a simple marinade of honey and balsamic vinegar. Roasted to perfection, it’s a flavorful and juicy dish that pairs well with any side. Try it with roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
