Old Fashioned Herb Recipes Cookbook






Recipe Introduction


Bought this little cookbook in Puerto Rico. It has some nice recipes in it. This one was very tasty.





List of Ingredients



• 6-8 boneless chicken breasts
  
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
  
• 2 twists freshly ground black pepper
  
• 2 shallots or an onion, finely chopped
  
• 1 cup vegetable oil
  
• 1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
  
• 4 tablespoons fresh tarragon or 4 teaspoons dried
  






Instructions



1. Sprinkle each piece of chicken with salt and pepper. In a bowl stir together shallots, oil, juice and tarrogon.
   
2. Immerse chicken breasts in marinade, reserving 1/2 cup, cover bowl and refrigerate 4-6 hours.
   
3. Remove bowl from refrigerator an hour before cooking chicken.
   
4. Arrange chicken pieces in shallow baking dish and baste with reserved marinade. Place under broiler approximately 5 minutes. Then turn chicken pieces. Baste again with reserved marinade and broil 5 more minutes. Serve immediately.
   






Final Comments


Instead of broiling I cooked this on the barbeque.
