The recipe centers around a creamy balsamic sauce created by reducing balsamic vinegar to a syrupy consistency before incorporating heavy cream and chicken broth. This process intensifies the sweet-tart flavor of the balsamic vinegar. The addition of mushrooms and bacon provides savory notes, while spinach adds a touch of freshness.
The resulting dish is described as having a touch of sweetness and tanginess, making it a full-flavored and delicious creamy sauce. It's a relatively quick recipe, taking approximately half an hour to prepare, suitable for both weeknight dinners and special occasions.
The article mentions the recipe's similarity to other chicken dishes found on the Delish website, such as chicken piccata, one-pan chicken and gnocchi, and creamy Tuscan chicken. Readers are encouraged to share their experience making the dish in the comments section.
If you’re familiar with our chicken piccata, our one-pan chicken & gnocchi, or our creamy Tuscan chicken, you know that for some chicken dishes, it’s ALL about the sauce. This one—with balsamic vinegar, heavy cream, and chicken broth—is a touch sweet, a little tangy, and super-delicious as a full-flavored creamy sauce. It’s so good, we can’t believe we didn’t think of it sooner!
What makes it so special is taking the time to reduce the balsamic vinegar down until it's slightly syrupy and extra concentrated before adding the rest of the sauce ingredients. This means its sweet-tart flavor really shines through and doesn’t get lost amidst all the cream. We also added mushrooms and bacon to keep it feeling savory, while spinach adds a welcome pop of green. It all comes together in just about half an hour too, perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
