Sheet pan chicken and brussels sprouts with reduced balsamic
Chicken second courses
Inspired by a favorite Ina Garten recipe for Brussels sprouts with Pancetta and Balsamic, this one replaces the pancetta with whole chicken legs, making it more of a meal. <br /> <br />For the balsamic reduction: I like to start with 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar and reduce it by half or a little more than half. This leaves me with extra reduced balsamic, which never goes to waste. You can, however, start with 1/4 cup and reduce it by half, which is 2 tablespoons, which is what you need for the recipe. Alternatively, you could splurge on a good bottle of syrupy, aged balsamic, and simply use 2 tablespoons of that. <br /> <br />Based on a few comments and personal trial, you could probably use as many as 2 lbs. of B sprouts. If you do, you might want to use another tablespoon of olive oil and more reduced balsamic. I used about 1/4 cup reduced balsamic when I used 1.5 lbs. B sprouts.
