Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb chicken breast
  • ¼ cup lavender syrup
  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons avocado oil
  • zest and juice of 1 lemon around 3 tablespoons
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons dried lavender buds

Instructions

  • Mix the lavender syrup, balsamic vinegar, avocado oil, juice of 1 lemon and zest, salt, pepper and lavender buds.
  • Add the chicken and coat well in the marinade. Refrigerate for 2 hours to allow the chicken time to marinate.
  • Once ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Cook the chicken for 30-35minutes or until the internal temperature reads 165 degrees.

Notes

  1. If you do thinly sliced chicken breast, it will cook faster and take around 15 minutes.
