Here is a Caribbean-inspired chicken recipe to get your creative juices flowing! Chicken breasts marinated in the flavors of the Caribbean islands: citrus, garlic, herbs, and a little hot sauce for spice. This recipe is from The Webb Cooks, articles and recipes by Robyn Webb, courtesy of the American Diabetes Association.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup fresh orange juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
- ½ teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
- ¼ teaspoon hot pepper sauce
- 1 ½ skinless, boneless chicken breasts
Directions
Step 1
Combine orange juice, garlic, olive oil, lime juice, orange zest, ginger, oregano, and hot pepper sauce in a blender. Blend into a marinade.
Step 2
Place chicken breasts in a nonporous glass dish or bowl. Pour marinade over chicken, cover dish or bowl, and refrigerate to marinate, at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours.
Step 3
Preheat oven to broil or preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil grate.
Step 4
Remove chicken from marinade (disposing of any leftover marinade) and grill or broil 6 inches from the heat source until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside, about 7 minutes per side.
