These 9 hour days at work are getting to me. I can't seem to get my act together plus PMS & all that!! Ugghhhhh

I took the Honey Lemon chicken out of the freezer for dinner tonight, was really good, it's a keeper here!!
Honey Lemon Chicken Marinade
4 chicken breasts, boneless & skinless
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup honey

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, lemon juice and honey, stirring well. Put chicken in a ziploc bag or freezer container and pour sauce over top. Refrigerate for about 1 hr, turning every 15-20 minutes. Place container or bag in freezer.

To cook:
Thaw chicken in refrigerator over night. Remove chicken from marinade and barbeque on the grill, or cook in the oven at 350F for 35-45 minutes (time will vary depending on chicken) until juices run clear and thermometer registers 165F.
I used cooked chicken breasts & just heated in the microwave & put over rice. Yummmmmmmmmm
