‘All-Purpose’ Grilled Chicken

January 21, 2017

For the past few days, I’ve been struggling with the meals I prepare including my breakfast and lunch at my workplace. I’ve been eating store-bought meals for years and most of them are on the naughty side. So lately… I’ve been thinking of one dish in which I could use in more than one meal.

Now, let’s talk about grilled chicken. Personally, I love chicken thighs – the one sweet and spicy, to be specific. But… I’ve been trying my best to eat more chicken breast than thighs now. Don’t be too happy – this might last for only few days. 😛 So there are grilled chicken that is only good for salad or rice or you know, just one meal. Then my hungry brain told me to search for a good grilled chicken recipe that’s good for everything.

This grilled chicken is good for salad, pasta, wraps, tacos, sandwich and so much more – you just have to be creative. 😉 I found a lovely marinade recipe and made the few adjustments and it tasted wonderful.

I hope my friends at Fiesta Friday # 155 would find this wonderful, too. Thanks, Angie, for keeping this party going. Lots of love to you!
