So thankfully I am over the funk and back to myself!! My creative juices are flowing and I am ready to blog it up!! I truly am in such a great place...I have two amazing and healthy children...a loving and supporting family...friends that are there for me and that I can count on...a boyfriend that makes me smile and I love spending time with...I am one lucky girl!!! Life truly couldn't get much better...some days it is just harder to recognize then others.
Today I am showing you a quick marinade for chicken...it is so simple and delicious. The best part about it is that I have made enough to last for a few meals this week. I love when I can cook once and have enough for later.
I used a package of Chicken Tenders that I bought on sale for $1.99 lb., for the marinade I combined 1 cup of Italian dressing, two cloves of chopped garlic and the zest and juice of 1/2 of a lemon...
Instead of chopping my garlic I use a press...it makes it such a quick job...
Pour the marinade over the chicken, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours to overnight...
I barbecued them on medium high heat for about 3 minutes on each side. The great thing about tenders is that cooking them goes very fast. I also made a bowl out of foil for some tomatoes that I drizzled with olive oil, salt and pepper...
I couldn't resist...they are beautiful and ready to pick...
I served the chicken with a side salad of romaine lettuce and roasted tomatoes. It was a light and perfect summer dinner...
Tune in later in the week to see what wonderful things I do with the leftover chicken. Cooking dinner this week is going to be a breeze. Sweet extra-
