Keyword: balsamic chicken marinade, balsamic marinade
Servings: 1 cup
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon mustard (I used yellow)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt & pepper to taste
Add the marinade ingredients to a small bowl and whisk together until smooth.
I suggest adding the chicken to a large ZipLoc bag along with the marinade and marinating for at least 30 minutes (up to a few hours) in the fridge. You may also use a covered bowl to marinate the chicken.
To prepare the chicken in the photos, I cut 3 chicken breasts in half lengthwise, added them to a large ZipLoc with the marinade, and let them sit for 30 minutes in the fridge. I grilled them over medium-high heat (gas BBQ) for 5-6 min./side.
- This recipe works for 3-4 chicken breasts or 4-6 chicken thighs.
