today was a blur. cleaned a lot and its like you can't even tell. my kitchen is a wreck. ugh. anywho - thats not what today is about. today is tasty tuesday treats day! huzzah! today i bring to your attention:
italian bbq chicken
barbecue sauce (i use jack daniels original)
italian dressing (i use low fat kraft or whatever is on sale)
chicken breast - boneless/skinless
you'll also want a grill (or you can bake it too at 350 for 1 hour)
method
- the night before - marinate chicken in italian dressing. if you can't marinate the night before, 1-2 hours before cooking would be ideal
- heat grill to medium heat (or if you have a foreman grill, just turn it on and let it warm up)
- make sure grill is greased with cooking spray
- gloss chicken with bbq sauce and place on grill
- when chicken will release from the grill, flip it and baste with a little more bbq sauce. continue this process until internal temperature of chicken is between 160-175 (try not to dry it out!)
serve with rice, grilled veggies, sweet potatoes, salad, or corn on the cob. you choose! it should look like this:
this is not EXACTLY the same thing... but its close.
i bet you could also substitute chicken with tofu. not sure how long you'd marinate the tofu... or if you could. i'm not very good at cooking tofu. i'd like to get better at some point though.
