Today I made my roomies some Chicken Caesar Salad. Salad dressings are not my forte so I just bought the Dole Ultimate Caesar Salad Kit (perhaps Ali can give you her Caesar dressing recipe) but I did make a very tasty (even my laconic room-mate remarked it was very good) grilled chicken.
You need:
- 2 chicken breasts
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- The juice of 1 small lemon
- 4 tbsp apple cider vinegar (I was originally going to use red wine vinegar but I couldn't open it, so the cider vinegar won out. I think it was the tastier choice in the end.)
- 1 tbsp dried rosemary
- 2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 heaping teaspoon honey (as usual I recommend unpasteurized wild honey. It just tastes better.)
Slice the chicken into long 1/2-1 inch thick slices. Stir together the ingredients in a small deep bowl (I actually used a tupperware and occasionally shook it). Add the chicken and marinate for at least 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
The best way to do this is to grill the slices on the barbecue. Since the chicken is already sliced, it doesn't take long to cook. However as it is the middle of winter I cooked the chicken in my toaster-oven on 350 for 25 minutes.
Place the chicken strips over tossed salad and voila: Chicken Caesar Salad! This recipe served 3 not so hungry adults. You may want to increase the amount of chicken if you are hungrier.
