grilled rosemary ranch chicken strips
i LOVE ranch. it is my favorite dressing hands down. if i could, i would put it on everything. when i saw this recipe on all recipes, i definitely wanted to try it, with my own unique touches. instead of fresh rosemary, i used dried rosemary in this dish. dried herbs are more concentrated, allowing you to use less, and therefore spend less. they also last longer in my pantry. this has to be one of my chicken favorite recipes, especially my oldest son’s. the chicken is amazingly tender and full of flavor.
ingredients:
- 1/4 cup canola oil -
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing -
- 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce -
- 1/2 tablespoon dried rosemary -
- 1 teaspoon salt/pepper -
- 1 teaspoon lime juice -
- 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar -
- 1 tablespoon sugar -
- 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts - sliced into strips
instructions:
- in a plastic gallon bag combine canola oil, ranch dressing, worcestershire sauce, rosemary, salt/pepper, lime juice, red wine vinegar, and sugar. whisk to combine.
- place chicken strips into the bag, squeeze out excess air, seal the bag and coat with the marinade.
- place in a bowl, just in case the bag leaks and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably over night.
- preheat the grill for medium-high heat. lightly oil the grill grate. place chicken strips on the preheated grill (discard marinade).
- cook on each side for 3-4 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear.
