  Add the wine (or chicken stock), balsamic vinegar, and the garlic to a large bowl, and combine.
• 
  Step 6
  Chef’s Note: What made this dish is the type of balsamic vinegar. I tried several types. Run-of-mill balsamic was fairly good; however, when I tried some raspberry infused balsamic, it was a taste homerun. You might want to play around with different balsamic vinegars.
