Balsamic Vinaigrette Marinaded Chicken

This balsamic vinaigrette marinaded chicken uses a marinade that is a combination of previous recipes.  The maple fig balsamic vinaigrette could be used on its own as the marinade, but you are going to want to add the extra ingredients.  Trust me on this.maple fig balsamic vinaigrette

As far as the jalapeno honey mustard, feel free to add more to suit your taste.  With two tablespoons, the chicken does not come out spicy at all.  If you prefer it more spicy, add more of the honey mustard or simply add more of the jalapeno balsamic.mustard jar balsamic vinaigrette marinaded chicken

I used two chicken breasts, two thighs, and a drumstick and had the perfect amount of marinade for them all.  Unfortunately, my father decided to dig into the dish before I was able to get a good picture out of it.  However, don’t let the lack of pictures dissuade you from trying this recipe.  It turned out great and tastes delicious.

I am trying out a new recipe format this week.  Let me know what you think of it!
