Everyday Chicken Recipe
Description: I call this “Everyday Chicken” because it uses ingredients normally on-hand, can be modified to use what you do have, tastes wonderful, goes with anything, and is easy. Either marinate for a couple of hours, or overnight and just pop in the oven for about an hour. Or, grill for a delicious, light chicken entree. Prep time includes marinating.
