Smoky Marinated Chicken Breast

Clean, Healthy and Yummy!

Those are the key words we need to run with.  The fundamentals of Family Fresh Cooking.

Here is a high protein, high flavor chicken recipe that you can cook up oh so quickly.  Make a big batch and you will have protein on hand for a few days!  Chop it, slice it, dice it.  Toss this smoky chicken with some veggies, top a salad, have it alongside brown rice, whole wheat pasta, quinoa or cous cous and off you go with a fit, fabulous meal!

My suggestion: when you buy your chicken look for the freshest, most sustainable choice at the market.  Opting for Organic is always best (I don’t like hormones with my protein, thank you!)  If you can’t get organic look for labels that have no wacky ingredients and no added hormones.  What your chicken eats is eventually what you are gonna eat.  Let’s keep it clean for the chicken and for us!

Smoky Marinated Chicken Breast

about 8 servings

2 Lb Boneless, Skinless Organic Chicken Breast (I cut mine in half and then butterflied the thicker breasts to thin out and shorten cooking time)

1/2 Cup Non Fat Yogurt

1/4 Cup Lemon Juice

A pinch of Garlic Salt and Pepper

1 Tbs Tumeric

1 Tbs Smoked Paprika

METHOD:

1. Combine yogurt, lemon juice and all seasonings in a bowl.
2. Add chicken to marinade and combine well.  Make sure chicken is completely coated with marinade.
3. Cover and put in fridge for at least 1/2 hour.  I marinated ours for about 3 hours (it could stay in fridge marinating all day if you need it to.)
4. Lightly spray or add a splash of oil to a large sauté pan.  Heat pan on medium high.
5. Add chicken, cook about 7-9 minutes per side or until cooked through.
6. Enjoy!
