BabyGirl & I left early for the lake yesterday. So after getting settled we went to the grocery store & I knew exactly what I wanted-grilled chicken. I was lucky to find organic skinless, boneless, chicken breasts on sale, so I bought 2 packages. I sliced the breast in half to thin them out. I looked through my cabinets & found some Webers Just add Juice marinade packets. These are great, only juice, no oil. I didn't want to use all of my lemons for juice, so I looked in the fridge & found:
Alcohol is a perfect marinade & there's certainly no shortage of it here at the lake! This particular bottle also has sugar, which is great for carmelizing. It also makes a delicious Arnold Palmer!
So I gathered all my ingredients & whisked together the marinade packet & Tuscan Lemonade.
I let it hang out in the fridge for awhile.
I considered building a fire to grill them all off, but then I just grabbed a few & threw them in the cast iron skillet with a little oil. Deglazing the pan with the lemonade gave it great color & flavor.
You'll have to wait for another time for the side salad I made!
These chicken breasts would be perfect to keep in the fridge for quick meals all week. They're great for lettuce wraps, atop a salad, diced up for a nice cold chicken salad or just on a paper plate!
