Guys… I’d give Shannon credit if I actually knew her. This recipe was published in the Church of the Incarnation Parish Cookbook as “Shannon’s Almost Famous Grilled Chicken” …Famous… maybe not. Delicious. Absolutely. Marinade works wonderfully for bone-in-skin-on breasts (legs, thighs, etc. if you’re into that sort of thing), tenders or boneless skinless breasts.
Shannon’s “Almost Famous” Grilled Chicken
Marinade for 12 tenders or 4 breasts
- 3 Cloves of Garlic, peeled & crushed
- 1 1/2 tsp. Salt
- 1/3 c. Brown Sugar
- 3 T. Stone Ground or Coarse Mustard
- 1/4 c. Apple Cider Vinegar
- Juice from 1 Lime (or 1 tsp. bottled)
- Juice from 1/2 Lemon (1/2 tsp bottled)
- 6 T. Olive Oil
- Cracked Black Pepper to taste
Marinate in airtight container or Ziploc bag 8 hours or overnight.
Grill breasts 4 min on each side on medium setting depending on thickness of breasts.
Best grilled but in a pinch can be baked on a raised rack for 20 min at 350 degrees.
Thank You Shannon Bradford, whoever you are. A stranger enjoying your chicken so much that they blog about it… makes it famous in my book!
And I’m a tough critic when it comes to cooking chicken at home. BUT I agree, maybe not famous, but definitely worth following a “recipe” for “just” grilled chicken. This is a GREAT recipe. And, while I also don’t know Shannon, she’s got quite a following in MY family! Thank you Shannon…whoever you are!
What do you do with a husband that won’t touch anything with mustard?
ooo that’s a toughy – My husband is a REALLY picky eater and would probably not be too keen on the list of ingredients… the trick is getting him to admit that he likes the finished product before sharing the secret of the ingredients. Unfortunately, with this marinade – the mustard kind of makes it.
