PRETTY CHICKEN MARINADE

PRETTY CHICKEN MARINADE

"This is a great chicken marinade! Allow chicken to marinade no longer than 4 hours, because the lemon juice will begin to cook the chicken. When grilled the chicken turns a beautiful caramel color.

2/3 cup olive oil
2/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
¼ cup lemon juice
2 T. liquid smoke flavoring
2 T. spicy brown mustard
2 tsp. ground black pepper
2 tsp. garlic powder
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

In a large bowl mix the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, liquid smoke, mustard, pepper, and garlic powder. Place chicken in a bowl, and coat with the marinade. Cover, and allow chicken to marinate a maximum of 4 hours in the refrigerator.

Preheat the grill for high heat.

Oil grill grate. Discard marinade, and place chicken on grate. Cook 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until juices run clear.

Yield: 4 servings.
