Chimichurri Chicken Recipe

Recipe Brought to you by FoodFit

This recipe serves: 4
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes

1 bunch parsley, washed and stemmed
6 cloves garlic, peeled and quartered
1 cup cooled chicken broth
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup distilled vinegar
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper flakes
salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, about 4 to 6 ounces each

Prepare the chimichurri. Finely chop the parsley and garlic in a food
processor. Blend in the remaining ingredients, adding the salt and pepper
to taste. The chimichurri should be highly seasoned. Arrange the chicken
breasts in a baking dish. Pour half of the chimichurri over them and
marinate for 1 hour, turning a couple of times. Preheat the grill to high.
Grill the chicken breasts for about 4 to 6 minutes per side. (Rotate the
breasts 90 after 2 minutes to give you a handsome crosshatch of grill
marks.) Serve the grilled chicken with the remaining chimichurri on the
side.
