Lemon plus spice is by far our favorite chicken marinade. This time it was Basil but right up there equal to Basil is Rosemary and Thyme.
Ingredients
1/2 cup EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest (optional)
1-2 tbsp fresh chopped basil, rosemary or thyme
1 tsp salt
4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
Combine and mix EVOO, lemon juice, zest, basil and salt in a gallon size Ziploc bag. Add chicken breast and remove air. Let marinade 30 minutes to 1 hour before grilling. Grill using your favorite method and ENJOY!

Hmmmm … I’m programmed to make a garlicky lemon chicken, but I love the idea of the basil. I’ll have to remember to try this next time. 🙂 [#FridayFavorites]
