Instructions
Wondering how to get deliciously grilled chicken in just minutes? Join Cameron Mason and McCormick® as we show you how to marinate chicken breasts in 5 minutes for juicy flavorful chicken this summer - perfect for 4th of July and summer grilling.
INGREDIENTS:
1 package McCormick® Grill Mates® Garlic, Herb & Wine Marinade Seasoning Mix
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon white or balsamic vinegar
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Mix Marinade Mix, oil, water and vinegar in small bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons marinade for basting. Place meat in large resealable plastic bag. Add remaining marinade; push air out of bag and seal completely.
2. Massage meat and marinade 5 minutes, turning the bag over often so meat absorbs most of the marinade. Remove meat from marinade. Discard any remaining marinade.
3. Grill chicken over medium-high heat 6 to 8 minutes per side or until chicken is cooked through, basting with reserved marinade halfway through cooking. Discard any remaining marinade.
