    FAQ About Balsamic Glazed Chicken

    Can This Be Used as a Balsamic Chicken Marinade

    I love to marinade the chicken before I cook it. It gives the chicken a lot more flavor. You can add everything together in a plastic bag and then store it in the refrigerator for at least an hour. I like to flip the bag half way through so that both sides are getting the full flavor of the balsamic glazed chicken marinade.

    Can I Make This a Honey Balsamic of Maple Balsamic Glaze?

    If you want more sweetness to this recipe, you can add 1/2 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the oil mixture to add more sweetness to the recipe. If you want to add the flavor without the points, you can use sugar free maple syrup and it will not change the point count.

    How Many Weight Watchers and Itrackbites in Balsamic Chicken Breast

    When I am counting the points for this recipe, I am only counting the chicken. I am not including the veggies. This is because everyone likes different veggies and while many of them are 0 points, some are not, so it is best to let you include those once you have decided. This recipe is 0 points on Purple and Blue and 3 points on Green.
