With both balsamic and mustard, this chicken dish is tangy and sweet. I served it to my family the night before Thanksgiving and they loved it.
When I asked the boys what to name this dish, my older son said, “Chicken Cherry Kale Amazement.” I guess that says it all since the boys have now entered the picky eater phase. This one is a crowd pleaser and works especially well for little ones. Enjoy!
