Marinated Chicken


This post is for my sister but anyone else that wishes to try this recipe is welcome to do so.






Quick Zesty Marinate-

1/2 cup of Zesty Italian dressing
2 Tbs. Soy sauce

Mix well until blended. Pour over four pieces of skinless, boneless chicken breast and let stand for at least half an hour. The longer the meat stands in the marinate the stronger the flavor. I usually marinate it in a Ziplock bag but any glass or plastic bowl will work. May need more marinate sauce if the bowl is too large.

Heat frying pan on lower medium setting. Melt 1 Tbs. margarine add meat lifted directly from marinate sauce and place in fry pan. Cover and cook slowly turning at least once but perhaps several times. Check it often to prevent burning. Takes 15 to 20 minutes depending on thickness of chicken breasts. I sprinkled a little bit of a " No salt" steak spice on them. You may use a little more of the marinate sauce part way through the cooking process. Do not save excess marinate sauce that was on the chicken and is not cooked as it will spoil.

Enjoy!

P.S. Same marinate sauce may be used on beef steak or pork steaks and chops. Can grill meat on the BBQ also.
