Ingredients
  

  • 1 to 1 1/4 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

Instructions
 

  • Whisk the apple cider vinegar, Italian seasoning, olive oil, salt and pepper in a bowl until well combined.
  • Put the chicken in a shallow dish or a 1-gallon sealable plastic bag. Add the marinade, toss to coat, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 12 hours. Never marinate on the counter.
    Step 2: chicken breasts in apple cider vinegar marinade in a glass dish
  • Take the chicken out of the marinade, shake off the excess and discard the leftover marinade.
  • Heat a grill or grill pan. Once it is hot, cook the chicken for about 5 minutes per side, until it is cooked through and no longer pink and a food thermometer reads 165°F.
    Step 4: marinated chicken breasts on a hot grill pan
  • No grill: line a broiler pan or a baking sheet with foil and coat it with cooking spray. Lay the chicken on the foil and broil, watching closely so it does not burn. Flip the chicken after about 5 minutes and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, until it is cooked through and a food thermometer reads 165°F.
  • Serve the chicken right away, or let it cool, pack it in covered storage containers and refrigerate it within 2 hours.

Notes

Marinate in the refrigerator, never on the counter, and discard the used marinade. Refrigerate cooked chicken within 2 hours and eat within 3 to 4 days, or freeze 3 to 4 months. Reheat to 165°F.
