Cooking Instructions

  • Warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  • Season both sides of the boneless, skinless chicken breasts with sea salt. Add them to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes until golden brown, then flip and cook another 4-5 minutes until fully cooked through (internal temperature should be 165°F).
  • In a small bowl, whisk together strawberry jam, balsamic vinegar, and water until smooth.
  • When the chicken is nearly cooked, carefully pour the sauce over it, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
  • Reduce the heat and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly. Stir in most of the fresh basil and simmer for another minute.
  • Remove the chicken from the skillet and plate it. Drizzle generously with the sauce and top with goat cheese (if using), reserved basil, and freshly sliced strawberries.
