Savory Chicken Breasts

This is a great way to turn boring old skinless chicken breasts into a flavorful treat. One word of caution, however: the sodium content of this recipe is high, although bear in mind that most of the marinade is discarded rather than absorbed.

Prep Time: 6 hours

Cook Time: 14 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup tomato ketchup or tomato sauce
• 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce (Tamari if you have a wheat allergy)
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/4 cup finely chopped scallions
• 4 5-6 ounce skinless, boneless chicken breasts

Preparation:

Combine ketchup, soy sauce, garlic, oil and scallions in a small bowl. Place chicken breasts in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade over chicken. Press out excess air and seal. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours.

Preheat broiler or grill. Remove chicken from marinade, and discard marinade. Broil or grill chicken for 6-7 minutes each side, until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
