Yummy Chicken

I didn’t name it, my kids did! They love this recipe.

What you need:

• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 TBSP  soy sauce
• 2 TBSP  Worcestershire sauce
• 2 TBSP lemon juice
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp herbs de provence
• 1 TBSP dijon mustard
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1.5-2 lbs chicken breasts or chicken tender strips

What to do:

Mix the marinade, add the chicken and let sit for 4-24 hours – the longer the better! Cook over medium heat in a pan (preferably a grill pan if you have one), grill or however you like to cook your chicken. I’ll also cook this in the instant pot –  pour everything into the pot and set to high pressure for 5 minutes, 10 min QR. You don’t get the carmelization like you would on the stove, but my kids actually prefer it this way (because they’re anti-flavor) and I prefer it because I don’t have to wipe the stove and backsplash down after dinner, so win-win as far as I’m concerned. <3 my IP!  We like to make chicken lettuce wraps with this – chop the chicken, put it in a romaine lettuce leaf and top with some roasted chopped (or whole) peanuts. Really good!! But you don’t have to do anything fancy, it’s just as good served on a plate with a side of veggies.
