Servings: 4

Preparation duration: 125 minutes

Cooking duration: 10 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons dark brown sugar

1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary leaves

4 cloves minced fresh garlic

1/4 cup light olive oil (or any light, flavorless oil)

1 to 2 pinches red pepper flakes

1-1/2 to 2 pounds thin-cut, boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)

3 tablespoons low-sodium tamari

Equipment:

bowl

whisk

plastic wrap

grill pan

stove

grill

Cooking instruction summary:

In a medium bowl add the chicken (thin-cut breasts or even thigh meat will work). In a smaller bowl whisk together the sugar, garlic, pepper, pepper flakes, rosemary, vinegar, tamari and olive oil until combined. Pour the marinade over the chicken and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours or overnight. Preheat your grill pan* on medium-high heat (stovetop) or your outdoor grill to 400-450, adjusting the temperature as it cooks to avoid burning, grill for 3 to 4 minutes before turning and continuing to grill for an additional 3 to 4 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked. You'll know the balsamic rosemary grilled chicken is ready to turn because the chicken will easily release itself from the grill grates. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving or slicing. If using a grill pan or outdoor grill, it would be a good idea to spray with olive oil spray before preheating. Please note that cooking times depend on the thickness and sized of your boneless skinless chicken breasts and that my cooking times are based on using thin-cut chicken breast halves.

Food Joke

A Change In Plans Source: "Today's Woman" magazine, Barbara A Tyler. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. I'm telling you in advance, so don't act surprised. Since Ms. Stewart won't be coming, I've made a few small changes: Our sidewalk will not be lined with homemade, paper bag luminaries. After a trial run, it was decided that no matter how cleverly done, rows of flaming lunch sacks do not have the desired welcoming effect. The dining table will not be covered with expensive linens, fancy China or crystal goblets. If possible, we will use dishes that match and everyone will get a fork. Since this IS Thanksgiving, we will refrain from using the plastic Peter Rabbit plate and the Santa napkins from last Christmas. Our centerpiece will not be the tower of fresh fruit and flowers that I promised. Instead we will be displaying a hedgehog-like decoration hand-crafted from the finest construction paper. The artist assures me it is a turkey. We will be dining fashionably late. The children will entertain you while you wait. I'm sure they will be happy to share every choice comment I have made regarding Thanksgiving, pilgrims and the turkey hotline. Please remember that most of these comments were made at 5:00 AM upon discovering that the turkey was still hard enough to cut diamonds. As accompaniment to the children's recital, I will play a recording of tribal drumming. If the children should mention that I don't own a recording of tribal drumming, or that tribal drumming sounds suspiciously like a frozen turkey in a clothes dryer, ignore them. They are lying. We toyed with the idea of ringing a dainty silver bell to announce the start of our feast. In the end, we chose to keep our traditional method. We've also decided against a formal seating arrangement. When the smoke alarm sounds, please gather around the table and sit where you like. In the spirit of harmony, we will ask the children to sit at a separate table. In a separate room. Next door. Now I know you have all seen pictures of one person carving a turkey in front of a crowd of appreciative onlookers. This will not be happening at our dinner. For safety reasons, the turkey will be carved in a private ceremony. I stress "private" meaning: Do not, under any circumstances, enter the kitchen to laugh at me. Do not send small, unsuspecting children to check on my progress. I have an electric knife. The turkey is unarmed. It stands to reason that I will eventually win. When I do, we will eat. Before I forget, there is one last change. Instead of offering a choice between 12 different scrumptious desserts, we will be serving the traditional pumpkin pie, garnished with whipped cream and small fingerprints. You will still have a choice: take it or leave it. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. She probably won't come next year either. I am thankful.
