Mesquite Chicken

Mesquite chicken has a slight smoky-sweet taste taking chicken to the next level. A side of fruit salad, grilled vegetables or an ear of corn round out flavorful yet healthy meal.

Ingredients:

3.5 lbs. chicken breast

Marinade:

1 pkg Grill Mates Mesquite Marinade

1/4 c. oil

1/4 c. water

Note: the marinade called for 2 lbs. chicken, but you can get away with 3.5 lbs.

1. Mix the marinade in a gallon side plastic bag. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or longer for a stronger flavor.

2. Grill or bake chicken until desired doneness.

Tip: Leftover chicken is excellent in a spinach and balsamic salad the next day. Top the salad with 1/2 cup strawberries to get the added benefit of 3 g. fiber, Vitamin C, and folate!
