I was feeling spontaneous and decided to make a marinade for half of a chicken breast I had in the freezer. it ended up amazing! the lime seeped into the chicken and tenderized it, as well as flavored it through and through.
ingredients I'm charging you for:
1/3 pound pasta (19.8¢)
1/2 chicken breast (49.5¢)
1/3 can tomato sauce (9.4¢)
juice of 1/4 lime (8.2¢)
1 t worchestershire sauce (5.2¢)
incidental ingredients (you should have these lying around):
garlic salt
lemon pepper
olive oil
- cook the pasta to preference.
- chop the chicken breast into pieces about two bites'-worth. combine remaining ingredients (excluding pasta) in a bowl and stir well. smell to ensure the sauce is to your taste.
- place chicken in marinade and stir to cover pieces. refrigerate for one hour.
- heat up olive oil in frying pan and add chicken plus remaining marinade. cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
- serve over pasta.
I was sick when I made this, and my friends were having a barbecue on a lovely sunny day. they came back raving about their barbecue and then tried my marinade. they said it was as good as what they'd just eaten!
