A savory and sweet main dish featuring succulent chicken glazed with a fresh strawberry sauce.

Steps

  1. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. 2. In a blender, puree the strawberries until smooth. 3. In a saucepan, combine the strawberry puree, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Cook over medium heat until thickened. 4. Grill or pan-sear the chicken until fully cooked. 5. Brush the strawberry glaze over the chicken. 6. Serve hot and enjoy!

Tips for Strawberry Glazed Chicken

  • The glaze should look glossy and cling to a spoon; if it becomes very sticky, it may have reduced too far.
  • Avoid crowding the pan so the chicken browns rather than steams.
  • Rest the cooked chicken briefly before slicing to help keep it juicy.

Drink pairing

A dry rosé
Its crisp fruit notes complement the strawberry-balsamic glaze without overwhelming the savory chicken.

0% option: Sparkling water with a squeeze of lemon

Storage

Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours in a covered container and keep for 3–4 days. Reheat until steaming hot; the glaze may loosen slightly as it warms.

Frequently asked questions

How can I tell when the chicken is done?

The thickest part should be opaque throughout, with no pink center, and the juices should run clear.

Can I make the glaze ahead?

Yes. Prepare it earlier the same day, cover and refrigerate, then warm it gently until pourable before serving.

What should I serve with strawberry glazed chicken?

Try rice or couscous with a simple green salad or roasted vegetables to balance the sweet-tart glaze.
