Something Different. . .

I feel like I have been stuck in a cooking rut, you know, the same things over and over. This morning I have been looking for new recipes that sound good and have found one for grilled chicken that I am going to try tonight.

Rosemary Ranch Chicken
1/2 cup olive oil (or less)
1/2 cup ranch dressing
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
1 tablespoon white sugar, or to taste (optional)
5 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into strips
DIRECTIONS
In a medium bowl, stir together the olive oil, ranch dressing, Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, lemon juice, white vinegar, pepper, and sugar. Let stand for 5 minutes. Divide the marinade and use 1/2 of it for some fresh vegetables (onions, peppers, squash, even steamed new potatoes) to grill, too. Place chicken in the bowl, and stir to coat with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Preheat the grill for medium-high heat. Thread chicken onto skewers and discard marinade.
Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill skewers for 8 to 12 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear.

Serve the chicken, grilled veggies and the marinade you used on the veggies(not the marinade from the chicken) over cooked brown rice.
