Say no to boring chicken with these 5 Healthy Chicken Marinades! Made with minimal ingredients, paleo, keto and Whole30 - they're perfect for meal prepping.
In separate bowls, whisk together marinades. Pour into individual ziploc bags. Place 1 large chicken breast (about 6-8oz chicken) with each marinade. Carefully try to squeeze out air from the bag.
If cooking immediately: Allow the chicken a minimum of 30 minutes to marinate (overnight is best for maximum flavor). Preheat oven to 425 + prepare a lined baking sheet. Lay chicken on the sheet side by side. Bake for 20 minutes. Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes + store in containers with veggies/side for meal prepping
If grilling: Allow the chicken a minimum of 30 minutes to marinate (overnight is best for maximum flavor). Heat grill over medium high heat (about 400 degrees). Cook chicken for about 7-8 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate, allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes + store in containers with veggies/side for meal prepping.
If freezing: Transfer the individual bags to the freezer. Lay flat in freezer. To defrost, remove from freezer 24 hours in advance + place in refrigerator. Allow to defrost + cook per directions above.
