Unbelievable Chicken

Adapted from this recipe on Allrecipes.com

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 12-16 minutes
Serves: 6

Ingredients:

• 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1/4 cup cider vinegar
• 2 tbsp. coarse ground mustard
• 1 tbsp. dijon mustard
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 lime, juiced (about 2 tbsp. juice)
• 1/2 lemon, juiced (about 1 tbsp. juice)
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp. salt
• ground black pepper to taste
• 6 tbsp. olive oil

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, mustards, garlic, lime juice, lemon juice, brown sugar, salt and pepper.  Whisk in the olive oil.  
2. Place chicken in a Ziploc bag and pour the marinade over the chicken.  Place in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.
3. Grill over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side.  Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.  Discard marinade.  

Notes & Suggestions:

The longer you marinate the chicken the better.  I usually try to marinate it overnight, but sometimes I only have time to marinate for a few hours.  It still turns out great!

I use whole grain mustard instead of the coarse ground mustard since it's what I usually have on hand.

Make sure you use fresh lime and lemon juice.  The bottled stuff is very concentrated and may be too overpowering.   

This chicken is also great on top of salads.  We usually use the leftovers to make a big chicken salad for dinner the following night.
