Winner winner, chicken dinner.
This marinade for chicken is so mouth-watering, I can guarantee you’ll make this every week. We use it for full chicken breasts, or cut into chunks for kabobs like seen in the picture above. Add this chicken to a light pasta, salad, or keep it plain jane on a plate. Either way, this marinade will become a go to for your chicken dishes. Using simple kitchen staples, this marinade only uses 5 ingredients and is made in a matter of seconds!
INGREDIENTS: (for two large chicken breasts ( 1 1/2 pounds ) ) Simply double/triple the marinade depending on the amount of chicken you have.
- 3 heaping teaspoons of Dijon mustard (we use a Trader Joes brand)
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp salt + 1/2 tsp pepper
- zest + juice of 1 lemon
DIRECTIONS:
Whisk all of the ingredients together in a small bowl, or shake it up in a mason jar. Pour over uncooked chicken in a gallon size bag and let marinade for 30 minutes – 4 hours in the refrigerator. Cook as you would like. Enjoy!
