My herb garden is overflowing this year. This was a quick and easy way to have a fresh tasting dinner, and use up some of my bountiful harvest! Serve with a nice green salad and warm bread. Ingredients:
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil |
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano |
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or to taste) |
1 lb boneless chicken breasts or 1 lb boneless chicken thighs |
1 lb cooked pasta (i like penne) |
1 quart prepared pasta sauce (i use home cooked, but a jar would work just fine) |
Directions:
1. Mix together oil, vinegar, lemon juice, basil, parsley, oregano, and pepper flakes together in a shallow bowl.
2. Add chicken and toss to coat.
3. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or as long as 2 hours.
4. Grill or broil chicken until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees, or until throughly cooked.
5. Serve by spooning warmed sauce over hot pasta, slice the chicken and arrange on top.
