My go-to is the ‘Indecision Chicken’ from Small Victories. I named it that because it’s from when I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to do honey mustard, herbs + olive oil, or lemon…so I just put them all together. It’s really good! Here are the measurements from the book but feel free to double, triple, whatever…
I like this for grilled chicken, but you could also broil it…
- A minced garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
- A tablespoon of minced fresh sage
- Finely grated zest + juice of 1 lemon
- A tablespoon of Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons of seeded mustard
- A teaspoon of honey
- ¼ cup olive oil
- Salt + pepper
I am also a big fan of just coating chicken in olive oil and seasoning it with salt and pepper and grilling it or roasting it, then serve it sliced with a delicious sauce or spoonful of salad dressing…think pesto, caesar, a garlicky vinaigrette, etc. This means less planning ahead and also your chicken is less likely to stick to the grill! Plus you get a big POP of fresh flavor rather than having the marinade disappear.
