This is a recipe I adapted from Giada's Everyday Italian. She also recommends grilling shrimp and bell peppers with this, but I'm not a fan of either of those and wanted to post this as I have it. She also suggests serving over saffron - I serve with salad instead. I cooked mine on my George Foreman grill and I can honestly say it is one of the best chicken recipes I've ever tried. Full recipe is on - Enjoy! Ingredients:
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 cup lemon juice, from about 3 lemons |
1 cup extra virgin olive oil |
1 teaspoon salt or 2 teaspoons kosher salt |
1 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes |
6 -8 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
1/2 lb cremini mushroom, wiped clean |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, combine the marinade ingredients. Reserve 1/4 cup of marinade for muahrooms. 2. In a large bowl, combine rest of marinade with the chicken breasts. Toss to combine. Cover and let marinate for at least 1 hour. If marinating for longer than 1 hour, make sure to refrigerate. 3. Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Toss the mushrooms with 1/4 cup of the reserved unused marinade. 4. Grill the chicken breasts to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 7 minutes a side. 5. Grill the mushrooms, about 2 minutes a side. Slice the mushrooms before serving, if desired. 6. Arrange grilled meats and vegetables on a large platter and serve immediately. |
