Grilled Chicken with Basil Dressing


This was a simple and delicious main dish - from Giada of course. I am glad I chose to make this after seeing it on The Piggly-Wiggly. I made the basil dressing the night before the party, marinated the chicken the morning of, and Chuck grilled it right before serving. The dressing recipe makes a lot, so even though I doubled the chicken and marinade, I probably could have made the original amount of dressing and been fine. Use fresh basil - you'll notice the difference! Link below:

  1. Basil and chicken go very well together. Eventhough I use basil more with tomato sauce and pasta, and for making pesto. I will have to remember to use it with meat as well.

  2. I am going to try this! I've been on a rapid search to get some chicken marinade recipes. Love grilling season!
