Balsamic Chicken and Pasta

What you need:
        • Balsamic vinegar

        • Chicken broth
        • Sugar (granulated)
        • Garlic (whole and powdered)
    • Italian seasoning (pre-blended or use what you like)
    • Olive and vegetable oil
    Boneless chicken
    Penne pasta
    Parmesan
     or Romano cheese


    I originally found this recipe online (here) and I've made it many times since. Instead of a straight chicken dish, I serve it as a pasta and change the preparation. You'd think that using so much balsamic would give this a really overpowering taste. You'd be wrong. Also stupid. The chicken is moist, tender, and extremely flavorful without being overpowering. The marinade/sauce/reduction/what-the-fuck-ever-you-want-to-call-it also makes a top notch pasta dressing.
