<p>I have been trying to make more meals and plan ahead for them. I feel like if I write them on a calendar I am more apt to make them for dinner and not just try to wing it. So the other night, I wanted to make some baked potatoes and I wanted to try a new recipe for the chicken. I looked through my cookbook of recipes to try and came across <a href="http://www.foodfit.com/recipes/recipe.asp?rid=1287">this one</a>. I was too hungry and excited to eat, so I didn’t take any pictures. </p>
<p>It was really simple to make. And it was pretty darn tasty. I was only making two chicken breasts for us, but I used all the sauce and marinated it most of the day before I grilled it on my grill pan on the stove. </p>
<h3>Asian Grilled Chicken Breasts</h3>
<p>1/4 cup olive oil<br />1 tablespoon soy sauce<br />2 cloves garlic, crushed <br />1 tablespoon minced ginger<br />1 tablespoon Dijon mustard<br />salt,to taste<br />freshly ground black pepper<br />6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts </p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;- </p>
<p>1. Mix the oil, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, mustard, salt and pepper, and brush on the chicken breasts. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight. </p>
<p>2. Preheat the grill. </p>
<p>3. Grill the breasts for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness. Let the chicken rest on a plate for 1 or 2 minutes before serving. </p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;- </p>
<p>My substitutions we using minced garlic and ground ginger…because that is what I had. I didn’t really measure them out. Just threw in what I thought was a good amount. It smelled so yummy! I think the only thing I wish is that there was a little extra sauce to drizzle over the chicken or my potatoes. I am sure I could have made a little more sauce and heated it up to use, but thought I should follow the recipe the first time. <img decoding="async" style="border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-smile" alt="Smile" src="http://andihays.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/wlEmoticon-smile2.png">&nbsp; </p>
<p>Do you have any food related resolutions this year? Have you tried any new recipes that I should add to my food calendar? </p>
