Day 16: Tangy Chicken


Chicken is not a protein that I generally get excited for. I'd much rather sit down to a dinner of grassfed beef or wild caught fish, but in the interest of eating somewhat economical, we mix chicken into the rotation every now and then. With that said, I'm constantly looking for new ways to prepare chicken and infuse flavor. This recipe is a winner - the chicken tastes like it was barbequed (minus the sauce). Yum!
Ingredients:
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken
1/2 Cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 Cup olive oil
1 Tbsp raw honey, melted (omit for a purely paleo recipe)
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 bay leaves
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Directions:
Mix vinegar, olive oil, honey, garlic, bay leaves, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper in a large ziploc bag. Add chicken and marinate for approximately 4 hours or overnight. Remove chicken from the marinade and grill over medium high heat for approximately 5 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Enjoy!
