My family LOVES chicken cooked on the grill that has first been marinated in Italian Dressing. I am never one who wants to go to the store to buy ONE INGREDIENT! So, I pulled out my trusty laptop and searched for a homemade Italian Dressing recipe. I found one that I love. It makes a great dressing for salads, lettuce or pasta, and I also use it for marinating chicken, either for cooking on the stovetop or on the grill. Its so much cheaper than buying a bottle of salad dressing and uses ingredients you probably already have in your house:
Homemade Italian Dressing (Zesty)
• ½ cup olive or canola oil
• ½ cup white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Italian spices (I used oregano)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• pepper (just a shake)
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• 3 Tablespoons water
• 1 Tablespoon mayonnaise (I did not use the mayo for my marinade)
Mix well and store in a jar in the fridge. Shake well before using. Sometimes I add 1/2 teaspoon of sugar if I'm after a less sour dressing. (IT SMELLS DIVINE!)
