Boneless skinless chicken breasts are one of my favourite proteins. They're full of protein, good for you, and when they go on sale, they're cheap! But when we eat chicken two times a week, it can get old. I love trying new things with chicken to help mix it up. I found
this recipe for lemon pepper chicken and thought it would be delicious! I made a few adjustments though. I loved the result. The chicken was moist, flavorful, light, and super easy! I served it with brown rice and while the brown rice was cooking, I made the marinade, let the chicken marinate and then grilled it up all while the rice was cooking. The marinade took all of 5 minutes to put together, it was great!
Ingredients:
1 pound chicken breast, cut into bite size pieces
1/2 c olive oil
1/2 c freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire
1 tablespoon lemon pepper
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 cloves garlic, smashed
In a small bowl mix the olive oil and lemon juice, mix well. Add the Worcestershire, lemon pepper and pepper and stir until combined. Put chicken in a resealable bag and add marinade. Throw in smashed garlic cloves and mix well to coat chicken thoroughly. Refrigerate for no longer than 30 minutes, the lemon juice will begin to cook the chicken. After half an hour, skewer chicken pieces and grill until cooked through.
