Chicken breasts marinated in the flavors of the Caribbean islands: citrus, garlic, herbs, and a little hot sauce for spice. This recipe is from The Webb Cooks, articles and recipes by Robyn Webb, courtesy of the American Diabetes Association.

Ingredient

    • ¼ cup fresh orange juice

    • 2 cloves garlic, minced

    • 1 tablespoon olive oil

    • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

    • 1 teaspoon orange zest

    • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root

    • ½ teaspoon chopped fresh oregano

    • ¼ teaspoon hot pepper sauce

    • 1 ½ skinless, boneless chicken breasts

Direction

    1. Combine orange juice, garlic, olive oil, lime juice, orange zest, ginger, oregano, and hot pepper sauce in a blender. Blend into a marinade.

    2. Place chicken breasts in a nonporous glass dish or bowl. Pour marinade over chicken, cover dish or bowl, and refrigerate to marinate, at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours.

    3. Preheat oven to broil or preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil grate.

    4. Remove chicken from marinade (disposing of any leftover marinade) and grill or broil 6 inches from the heat source until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside, about 7 minutes per side.
