Stop searching. This is the best. It gets rave reviews whenever I make it as it keeps the chicken juicy and adds a punch of flavour. Best of all, it doesn’t call for soy sauce which can sometimes drown out the flavours of the other ingredients, not to mention adding all that sodium that we just don’t need. It uses ingredients that you will always have on hand, so it doesn’t require yet another trip to the grocery store.
Serves 4-5
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice (fresh squeezed is best)
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons honey
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon salt
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into strips
Whisk together all ingredients. Thread chicken on pre-soaked bamboo skewers and place in an 11×14″ glass dish. Pour marinade over, reserving about 1/4 of it for basting. Let sit in the frig for 2-4 hours, then grill over medium-low heat for about 12 minutes, basting with the reserved marinade.
