Grilled Chicken

As y'all know, I LOVE easy, simple recipes. This ond is about as easy and simple as it gets - just 2 ingredients! It's literally a half and half ratio of the two ingredients, so it can be quickly modified to any amount of chicken you wish to grill.

Grilled chicken, potato wedges, corn salad, and cheesy garlic biscuits!
I wanted a chicken marinade for the grill that would impart good flavor without being overwhelming. This marinade forms a pleasant layer on the outside of the chicken without being tough or leathery, and the chicken is still tender and juicy inside. Of course, you can also bake or pan fry the chicken using this recipe, but I think it's best grilled. Ready?

Ingredients:
4 medium chicken breasts
3/4 cup ranch dressing
3/4 cup zesty Italian dressing

Butterfly the breasts if desired, for faster cooking time. Mix the ranch and zesty Italian dressings together in a cup. Using a gallon sized zipper baggie, layer the marinade and chicken breasts. Zip the baggie shut and vigorously squeeze and smush the chicken breasts around until thoroughly coated. Place in the refrigerator and turn over every few hours; let sit for 8 hours or overnight. Grill till tender and enjoy!
