Zesty Chicken

December 16, 2014

This delicious Zesty Chicken recipe has got to be the best chicken I have had in a long time – moist, tender, and yummy.  It is a twist on a recipe I found in an old Simple & Delicious magazine from August 2006.  I made it my own with a few tweaks and it is definitely a keeper.  We ate it “straight up,” but next time I am thinking about throwing it in a wrap or on a bun with all the toppings and making a sandwich out of it.  What do you think?

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • 1/2 cup Ketchup
  • 2 teaspoons dried parsley

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2-3 dashes hot sauce optional
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • To use as a marinade: combine all ingredients, including chicken, in a large zipper bag. Toss to mix/coat. Allow to marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Discard marinade and bake or grill chicken.
  • To use as glaze:
  • Bake chicken, covered, at 425 degrees for approximately 20 minutes.

Notes

*When making this recipe, I used a Vidalia Onion and Vinegar dressing and it was delicious. Zesty Italian or regular Italian dressing would be perfect also.
