Description
This zesty Italian Dressing Chicken starts with an easy marinade and can be finished on the grill or in the oven.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup Italian Dressing (store bought or homemade)
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin wrapped in saran wrap. Salt and pepper the chicken.
- Place chicken in a ziplock bag or baking dish and add the marinade. Marinade for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2+ hours.
To grill:
- Preheat the grill to 400 degrees. Dip a paper towel in vegetable or canola oil and use tongs to rub the oil over the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it directly on the grill. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
To bake:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place the chicken and marinade in a baking dish. Bake for 20-30 minutes depending on the thickness, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
Notes
- You can also freeze chicken in marinade so it’s ready to go!
