Notes
• If you don’t have balsamic vinegar, you can substitute it with white or red wine vinegar.
• Make sure to cook the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. This is important for food safety and avoiding illness.
• If you want to make this dish spicier, add more cayenne pepper.
