Simply Yummy Grilled Chicken Recipe

This is by far one of the best chicken recipes I have ever had in my life. It ranks right up there with Tisha's Teriyaki Chicken which is amazing. I found this on Pioneer Woman's blog and made it last week, I doubled the batch and it was Gone quick in this house with everyone asking for more. 


Ingredients

6 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts

MARINADE:
1/2 cup Balsamic Vinegar
1 cup Olive Oil
3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
2 Tablespoons Steak Seasoning (I Used A1)
Sauce:
1 cup Honey
8 pieces Thick Cut Bacon, Diced
3 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
1 Tablespoon Hot Sauce


Preparation Instructions

Slice the chicken breasts into thick strips diagonally. Combine marinade ingredients in a plastic zipper bag. Throw in chicken, seal bag, and marinate in fridge for at least 3 hours.


Make the sauce: Fry the diced bacon in a heavy skillet until slightly crisp. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels. Pour off and discard grease but do not clean skillet. Set the skillet over medium-low heat and add honey, Worcestershire, and hot sauce. Stir to combine and allow to bubble slightly. Stir in bacon, then remove from heat and set aside.


Remove chicken from marinade and discard marinade. Grill chicken on both sides until completely done.

Place into a big heatproof bowl, then pour the sauce over the chicken. Toss to coat.

Chicken Caesar Lettuce Wraps


Quick but yummy and somewhat healthy lunch..minus the kettle chips, but it was a great recovery meal after a really hard workout. I could use a few chips here and there. Right?
 
In a bowl mix:
1 can chicken breast
handful golden raisins
handful of red grapes, quartered
2 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
2 Roma tomatoes chopped
1/2 cup lowfat shredded cheddar
chopped walnuts
pepper
2 T. fat free mayo
2 T. fat free Caesar dressing
Romaine Hearts
Large Leafy Lettuce Leaves
 
 

Because I actually really love crunch I wrapped these in Romain hearts first. About 1 1/2 tablespoons in each.
 

Roll them up then roll them in some leafy lettuce, for these I used tri-colored greens. 

Served with Kettle cooked BBQ chips and some spicy roasted red pepper hummus. It was quite a good lunch and one I will probably repeat tomorrow :-)
