Easy Summer Meal!
Mixed greens
Leftover grilled zucchini or whatever veggies you like on a salad
A handful of fresh raspberries
Chicken Breast marinated in raspberry balsamic vinaigrette
Vinaigrette:
2 parts high quality balsamic vinaigrette (if you use cheap stuff, you must not like the people you're feeding... check out The Olive Branch if you can! They even have a raspberry balsamic, but their 18 year vintage is amazing)
2 parts good extra virgin olive oil
1 part honey
1 fresh raspberries (smashed! keep the seeds, or not - the choice is yours!)
to taste: dash italian seasoning, dash sea salt, dash garlic salt
Pound out the chicken breasts for even cooking. (Put it between two layers of plastic wrap in order to not dirty your cutting board.) Put in a bowl and marinate in vinaigrette for an hour or so. Heat the grill and cook the chicken. Pull off, let rest for 5 minutes, slice on the bias (angle), and serve with salad, more raspberries, and drizzle of more vinaigrette! Fresh and delicious.
This would be great with wild rice, grilled potatoes, or anything else you like - it's just that good.
