    We all have grown very acquainted with the whole grilled chicken and steamed vegetables dinner plate..but it can get boring. I'm always interested in ways to infuse delicious flavor into my grilled chicken! Any suggestions? I marinated my chicken in lime, garlic and pepper for dinner tonight and loved how it tured out..so there's that.

    Crock pot! I like lemon pepper seasoning or a mustard & season all rub... add in some red potatoes and carrots or green beans, etc...

    Pound out 3 oz chicken breast until it's about 1/2 in thin. Sprink with salt & pepper, top with 4-6 basil leaves and 3 thin slices of tomato (add salt free seasoning/herbs on tomato, if you like). Drizzle with olive oil. Bake at 375 for 17-20 minutes. If you have room for the calories, top with fresh mozzerella before you bake. Great with or without a little balsamic vinegar drizzle when they're done.

    Last night it was crusted with coconut and baked.

    This sounds amazing. With some brown jasmine rice...yumm. Thank you! I'll try this one out for sure. I love coconut.

    oh my. this one sounds really good, too

    I really love balsamic vinegars...they are roughly 15-20 calories per tablespoon. Add a teaspoon of good olive oil and a tablespoon of water and that's a marinade. The one I really like right now is honey ginger balsamic, but they come in all sorts of flavors (I even like the hibiscus one over ice with seltzer and a bit of stevia). I put my chicken in a smallish ziplock bag, add the balsamic, oil and water and press out all the air. Let it sit in the fridge for a few hours, or overnight. I cook it with the marinade and add a splash of chicken stock to deglaze the pan, season with whatever strikes my fancy and serve.

    marinated with lemon, rosemary, and thyme is one of my favorites. Thanks for the great suggestions for variations.

  • Franks Red Hot Sauce ( I dont measure.... so ill say a *kitten* ton of it - enough to cover your meat)
    Club House Piri Piri seasoning ( a sh*it ton of it - or to your tasting lol)

    Let it marinate over night. I like smaller chunks of chicken so that more sauce gets absorbed.

    BBQ it and bast with extra sauce.

    MMMMM ... soo good. If you want to get fancy squirt some lime on the finshed product or granish with cilantro.


    OR

    Club House Smoked Paprika
    PC Taste of Spain Marinade ( i think its only availabe in canada) but any tomato & paprika based marinade will work. I like the PC one beacuse its not full of sugar or a ton of other crap.

    Same measurements as above.

    BBQ or bake.

    Enjoy.

    My new favorite is this:

    2 Tablespoons greek yogurt
    2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
    1 baked chicken breast, shredded
    1 pita shell, cut in half to form pockets

    mix the yogurt and mustard together, added shredded chicken, mix well, stuff in pockets. Eat.

    I also like to do this one when not in as much of a hurry (sorry for lack of measurements in this one, I just throw it together)

    Greek Yogurt
    bread crumbs
    grated Parmesan cheese
    chicken breast

    put chicken in a non-stick baking pan. Spread greek yogurt on top. mix bread crumbs and parm cheese (I usually do a 2:1 mixture of bread crumbs to cheese, but you can play with it) and sprinkle on top of yogurt. Place in 350ish degree oven and bake for about 20 minutes until done.

    You can liven up grilled or roasted chicken with a sweet marinade the last 10-15 minutes of cooking. Any longer and there is risk of burning the marinade. Try 1 part marmalade to 1 part mustard or 1 part honey to one part mustard. Sweet barbecue sauce works well too: mix ketchup, brown sugar, mustard and vinegar to taste.

    Flatten 4 oz chicken breast, dip in egg white, dust with bread crumbs, fry on med/low heat. Use a non stick spray or just wipe the pan with oil to coat. The pan has to be hot. Take your time cooking it. I cover and put on low heat. It's amazing! We like hot sauce sprinkled on top.

    Chicken breasts marinated overnight in low-fat italian dressing and then grilled or baked with green peppers and onions!

    Old Bay seasoning or lemon pepper then grill on the George Foreman!
  • Like Indian flavours? I baste mine all over with commercial curry paste - doesn't matter what flavour. If it needs thinning to make it more spreadable I just add a little olive oil. Whack it on the barbecue or grill and voila you have a very tasty addition to a bunch of salad veges or whatever else you choose.
