Growing up, my grandma had a fig tree in her backyard. Picking figs was something we looked forward to. Fig preserves was the only way I ate them as a kid, but as an adult I've learned how delicious they are used in other ways. This easy balsamic chicken recipe with figs is the perfect example. It's a simple, hearty, savory, rich dish full of these little fruits. Depending on where you live, fig season ranges from May to November.

Here is your shopping list for this chicken recipe: bone-in chicken pieces (legs or thighs work best), balsamic vinegar, garlic, Dijon mustard, fresh thyme, honey, olive oil and fresh figs. This chicken dinner has the perfect balance of sweet and acidity. The sweet comes from the honey and figs. The balsamic vinegar is slightly sweet but brings the acidity along with the Dijon mustard. It's the perfect combination of flavors.

Serve this skillet chicken for dinner with your favorite side dishes. Here are more fig recipes to enjoy:
