Ingredients
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, optional
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Mrs Dash garlic and herb
- 1/2 teaspoon Mrs Dash chicken seasoning
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
- 2 chicken breast (boneless, skinless)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Whisk ingredients (except chicken and rosemary sprig) in a bowl.
-
Step 2: Put chicken breasts in a zip lock bag and pound the fattest part of the breast till the whole thing is uniform thickness. Make sure there are no holes in the bag, then put the rosemary sprig in and pour the marinade over it. Seal and put on a plate and refrigerate at least 2-3 hours.
-
Step 3: Remove from refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to cooking the chicken. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan.
-
Step 4: Grill the chicken on a medium hot grill about 8 minutes on each side, or until it's not pink in the middle, but still juicy. In the meantime, boil the marinade for 10 minutes so as to kill any bacteria, and so it reduces down to a semi-thick sauce.
-
Step 5: Slice chicken breasts on the diagonal and spoon sauce over it. Enjoy!
