Most of my recipe inspiration comes from magazines, books, or television. Sometimes I will be inspired by a dish that I enjoyed at someone's home or in a restaurant. This particular recipe comes from none of those places. I saw a post on Facebook about a month ago from one of my favorite bloggers Burp and Slurp. She accidentally confused an onion bagel for a blueberry bagel and slathered it with strawberry cream cheese. To some this may sound odd but to me it sounded like the makings of an interesting dinner.
1 pint strawberries
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 bunch green onions
1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Wash, hull and slice the strawberries into your desired size and shape. Put into a small bowl and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
Brush green onions lightly with olive oil and grill until lightly charred and cooked through turning once. Remove from grill and cut into ¼ to ½ inch-sized pieces. Add to the bowl with the strawberries.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper and grill for 5 to 7 minutes on each side or until cooked through. The internal temperature in the center of the chicken should be 165°F. Remove the chicken from the grill and let rest 5 minutes.
To serve, place the chicken breast on a plate and top with the strawberry and onion mixture.
