Balsamic Chicken over Greens
Balsamic Chicken over Greens, Nutrition Note: Broiling is a healthful choice for cooking meats and fish because no fat is added. If a broiler pan is not available, place a wire baking rack in a pan to catch drippings. For easy clean-up, line the pan with aluminium foil.

- 3/4 cup bottles reduced-calorie balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper

Discard any remaining marinade.
