A blend of heart-healthy avocado oil, vinegar, and zesty herbs and spices make PRIMAL KITCHEN® Green Goddess Dressing the perfect marinade for chicken. Chives, tarragon, parsley, savory and rosemary, plus black pepper and garlic, turn plain chicken breasts into a sensational meal. All you have to do is twist off the lid and pour on the flavor.

Green Goddess dressing isn’t the only secret weapon PRIMAL KITCHEN® is wielding against bland, dry chicken. The other secret ingredient in this marinade is PRIMAL KITCHEN® Mayo. Whisked into any chicken marinade, mayonnaise adds fat and flavor, two things that boneless, skinless chicken breasts can always use more of. Mayo coats the chicken, locking in flavor and moisture and turning out chicken breasts that are tender and flavorful.

For an easy lunch or dinner, slice this green goddess chicken over a salad and top with more PRIMAL KITCHEN® Green Goddess Dressing (of course!).

Servings: 4 to 6

Time in the Kitchen: 25 minutes to cook, plus at least 4 hours to marinate

Ingredients

• 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1.4 kg)
• ½ cup PRIMAL KITCHEN® Green Goddess Dressing (120 ml)
• ¼ cup PRIMAL KITCHEN® Mayo (60 ml)

Instructions

Pound the chicken breasts to uniform thickness. The easiest way to do this is to put the chicken in a resealable plastic bag, then use a meat pounder or rolling pin to even out the thickness of the chicken. Aim to make the whole breast about ¾-inch thick.

Whisk together the PRIMAL KITCHEN® Green Goddess Dressing and Mayo. In the same resealable plastic bag used to pound the chicken, pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag and marinate at least 4 hours and up to 12 hours.

Preheat oven to 450º F/232º C, or heat a grill (clean and oiled) to medium-high.

Take the chicken breasts out of the marinade and use a paper towel to blot excess marinade off the meat.

If grilling, cook the chicken for approximately 6 minutes per side, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh registers 160º F/71º C to 165º F/74º C.

If baking, spread chicken out on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh registers 160º to 165°. To brown the outside, turn off the oven and turn on the broiler (placing the baking sheet directly below) for the last 5 to 7 minutes of cooking.

Let the breasts cool 10 minutes before slicing. Green Goddess chicken is delicious served warm or cold.

Lay the chicken over salad greens and pour PRIMAL KITCHEN® Green Goddess Dressing on top.

Everyone needs a back pocket food. I’m not even talking about the quick egg scramble you make when you don’t feel like cooking — I’m talking about the food you stick in the oven or microwave when you’re in peak I’m-not-cooking mode. Mine is this frozen burrito. It’s got just enough stuff in it to make me really satisfied, with thoughtful flavors and ingredients — how many frozen burritos have options with anasazi beans, kimchi, or cardamon-laced curries? And they’re all vegetarian.

There are some things in life you have to try at least once. The short list includes, but is not limited to, riding a bike, bomb pops on a hot day, sneaking out of the house after curfew, skinny-dipping, and, of course, making Katy Perry’s cherry pie. Yes, Katy Perry just released a recipe for cherry pie and obviously I needed to make it immediately. Because hello, it’s Katy Perry’s cherry pie.

So pop that confetti and bring out the Pérignon because I set out to see if this recipe could be my teenage dream tonight! Was it the eye of the tiger? Here are my thoughts.
