Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 1 medium, diced Red bell pepper
• 1 medium, diced Zucchini
• 1.5 cups Sweet corn kernels
• 1 cup, halved Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 medium, diced Red onion
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and paprika on both sides.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.

Step 4

Once melted, add the diced red onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the diced red bell pepper, zucchini, and corn kernels to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 6

Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes to soften slightly.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and honey. Pour the mixture over the sautéed vegetables and toss to coat evenly.

Step 8

Let the vegetables cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the balsamic glaze to reduce slightly.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley.

Step 10

Serve the chicken breasts on a plate with a generous portion of balsamic succotash on the side.
