Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs thin sliced chicken breasts
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Crushed red pepper to taste (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a pan with olive oil and add the chicken breasts. 
  2. Mix together olive oil, coconut aminos, balsamic vinegar, honey, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper to make the marinade. Pour over chicken. Bake for 20 minutes. 
  3. While chicken is cooking, start the mashed potatoes. Bring a pot of water to boil and add the potatoes. Boil until fork tender, about 10 minutes.
