While the chicken is marinading make the strawberry salsa. Finely dice the strawberries and place in a non-metallic bowl along with the finely chopped onion and tomato. Add some chopped basil and the remaining balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Allow the salsa to sit at room temperature for all the flavours to develop.
