Italian Seasoned Grilled Chicken Breast

Published on by richbLeave a comment

This is a great easy to make recipe. Just slice boneless skinless chicken breast up, add marinade mix to oil, water, and vinegar and marinate for a few hours. Grill and eat! They taste great. In a pinch you can use a packet of Good Seasons Italian Salad dressing mix instead of the mix on this recipe, they are pretty much the same.

Ingredients

  • Italian Dressing seasoning mix along with wet ingredients (See Recipe on this site)
  • 3 bonelesss skinless chicken breast (slice to split into 3 thinner beast pieces)

Directions

Mix together we and dry ingredients on Italian Dressing Mix Recipe, then add sliced chicken to marinade in a bowl or ziploc bag and marinade in the refrigerator for 1 – 4 hours. Heat grill very hot (I shut the lid with the burners on and heat to about 450 degrees fahrenheit) then add chicken to grill and cook till browned. Serve and ENJOY!

Italian Dressing Mix

Published on by richbLeave a comment

I wanted to make some fresh Italian Dressing, but don’t like that the Good Seasonings mix packets cost around $1 – $1.50 per packet so I decided to make my own. It came out great, and tastes almost exactly like the packet. It takes spices that you most likely already have setting around and takes less than 5 minutes to make. Here is the recipe for the mix and for the dressing if you want to make it right away.

Ingredients for Mix

  • 1 tsp of granulated garlic (garlic powder)
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp parsley flakes (crushed)
  • 1/8 tsp sugar

Ingredients to make Dressing

  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 1/8 cup water
  • 1/2 cup of canola oil

Directions

Mix all the ingredients for the Mix together and store till ready to use. When ready, add the mix into a bottle with a lid along with all the ingredients for the Dressing and shake well.
