Directions

  1. Heat balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly to prevent burning and reducing heat if necessary. Cook and stir until reduced to a syrup-like consistency, 6 to 8 minutes.

  2. Combine cucumbers, tomatoes, and chicken breast in a large bowl. Drizzle the balsamic reduction and olive oil on top, toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

Recipe Note

This flavorful salad uses reduced balsamic vinegar in its dressing, making it a sweeter version than the traditional balsamic vinaigrette. Feel free to use a leftover chicken breast in the salad...I ended up creating this salad to use one up!
