Instructions
Using a medium bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic, oregano, and basil. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
Marinade chicken pieces in this poultry marinade for 6-12 hours. Use this as a make-ahead dinner: prepare the marinade in the morning and marinate the chicken all day. Then, it's all ready when it's time to make dinner in the evening.
Notes
Dispose of the marinade as soon as you remove the chicken. Do not reuse marinade. To store any extra, unused marinade, place it in an air-tight container and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
