This 20 Minute Tomato Basil Skillet Chicken is a perfect healthy weeknight dinner!

When you cook dinner at home pretty much every night, you learn to whip things up as quickly as possible.  The less dishes you can clean, ingredients you can buy and time you can take to make a meal – THE BETTER!  So finding fresh ingredients and flavorful add ins are the way to go to make this happen.  This Tomato Basil Skillet Chicken takes 20 minutes (trust me I timed myself), has 6 ingredients and gets tons of flavor from the amazing Basil & Oregano Nakano Seasoned Rice Vinegar!  This stuff adds perfect acidity and flavor to the chicken and creates an amazing little sauce.  
I don’t know about you but I absolutely love cherry tomatoes when they cook in a pan with olive oil and garlic.  What’s not to like?!  I’ll admit… I use garlic powder on the reg to make things easy and rarely use minced garlic for meals, but after making this dish I think fresh garlic is going to be coming around a lot more often!  It’s hard to explain what FRESH takes like, but it just makes your heart happy.  Adding a mix of fresh herbs and the herbs in the Basil & Oregano Nakano Seasoned Rice Vinegar, make for a balance of flavor that you won’t believe came from a 20 minute meal.  To get your hands on some, print out this coupon and head to the store!!
