Ingredients

Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 cup avocado or olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon brown or Dijon mustard (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons fresh basil, finely chopped + additional for topping (could also use a mix of thyme and basil)
  • 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1.25 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, tenders or thighs (if large, cut in half)

  • 3-4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into sticks (see note below)
  • 2 cups button mushrooms, halved or quartered

  • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes

Instructions
