For best results, use high-quality balsamic vinaigrette and fresh mozzarella. The flavor difference is significant. If you don't have time to marinate for 12-24 hours, even a 2-hour marinade will impart a noticeable flavor. To add a touch of sweetness, consider drizzling a small amount of honey over the finished dish along with the balsamic vinegar. Consider grilling the chicken for a smoky flavor. Marinate as directed, then grill over medium heat until cooked through.
