Ingredients

  • 1⁄2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1⁄2 cup Simple Truth Organic™ Soy Sauce
  • 1⁄2 cup Simple Truth Organic™ Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 1 1⁄4 pounds Simple Truth Organic™ Natural Boneless & Skinless Chicken Breast Tenders
  • 1 cup Simple Truth Organic™ Long Grain Brown Rice
  • 2 green onions, chopped

Directions

  • In a large resealable bag, combine vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, garlic, ginger and pepper. Mix until sugar dissolves. Add chicken and turn to coat. Refrigerate all day.
  • Preheat oven to 200°F.
  • Transfer chicken and marinade to a large heavy nonstick skillet and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring and turning chicken occasionally. Transfer chicken to a plate, cover and place in oven to keep warm.
  • Cook rice according to package instructions.
  • In the skillet with marinade, increase heat to medium and bring remaining liquid to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cook until syrupy, stirring constantly, about 10-12 minutes. Return chicken to skillet, coat it with sauce and serve immediately over rice and sprinkled with green onions.
