Balsamic Chicken

My family ( not Aaron and my kids) eat this all the time. I really like it. I'm not sure anyone else will but here it goes...

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 t lemon pepper seasoning
1 1/2 t extra virgin olive oil
1/3 c balsamic vinegar
1/4 c chicken broth
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 t BUTTER
parsley sprigs ( opt. these are garnish)
cherry tomatoes(Opt. garnish as well)

On a hard surface with a meat mallet lightly pound chicken to 1/4 inch
Press lemon pepper seasoning evenly on both sides of chicken
In a large frying pan pour oil and heat to medium temperature
Add chicken and cook, turning once, about seven minutes or until a fork can be inserted into chicken with ease

Remove chicken to warm serving platter ( keep warm) In a medium bowl, mix together vinegar, broth and garlic: add to frying pan: Cook over med-high heat ( scraping up brown meat bits) about two minutes or until mixture is reduced and syrupy.

Add butter: stir to melt

Place chicken on a serving dish and spoon sauce over the chicken.

Garnish with parsley and cherry tomatoes.
