THE BEST GRILLED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Working with one chicken breast at a time, place the chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Gently pound with a meat mallet to 1/2 inch thick then transfer to a large bowl.

Pour the marinade over the chicken. Turn the chicken a few times to coat then submerge in the marinade. Cover the bowl with a clean dish towel and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes but no more than 3 hours.
• Meanwhile, heat a grill to medium.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade to a large platter, letting any excess marinade drip back into the bowl. Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Grill, covered, flipping once halfway through, until a digital thermometer registers 165 degrees F, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
• Thinly slice the scallion greens on a bias and sprinkle over the chicken. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

GRILLED CHICKEN KISSES

Season with cajun spice and pepper, to your taste ( or use your favorite seasonings) Place about 1/2 cup of baby carrots onto potaoes.
• Put about 1/4 of a cup of the barbecue sauce on top. Then, place a chicken breast on top of potatoes, carrots, and sauce. Season chicken with the cajun spices and pepper. Place onion rings, as many as you like, on top of chicken. Finish off the packet with another 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce over the onions.

Mine is gas, I have it at about 350. I just leave them on the grill for 45 minutes All of these portions can be easily adjusted to each packet. Be careful when opening them.
