Marinated Chicken for the Grill
"This is my MIL's recipe. When I first watched her make it, I was a little taken aback. I had NEVER seen anyone marinate chicken in mayonnaise! But, it worked!! the chicken did not burn, it was so flavorful and has become the norm in our house. I've only used the full fat mayo for this so I'm not sure if the low fat or fat-free will work. I also skin the thighs, but you don't have to."

Wow, this produced some excellent grilled chicken! I cut the recipe in half to use with about 1.5 lbs. of boneless chicken breasts. I used dijon mustard, and minced a shallot in place of onion slices, and I let it marinate for a couple hours before tossing on the grill. Tons of flavor without losing any juiciness. Thanks Daniele1969!

I live in Rockville, MD which is 20 minutes north of Washington DC. I love to cook, read, go bike riding with my Hubby, Salsa dancing with Hubby, cook out with all our friends and travel. My favorite cookbook is one my mother wrote, From My Grandmother's Kitchen by Viviane Miner. It is a Safardic cookbook and has every single recipe my mother has ever made. I used to have a BIG black cat named Danzig, but he passed away the summer of 2005. We now have 2 cats, a calico who is mostly white (AH! White hair everywhere)and a black and white "Tuxedo" cat (He looks like he's wearing black tuxedo tails) They're names...Lilo and Stitch! And as pet-peeves go - why can't people use the ear piece for their cell phones when driving their cars?!
I was never really into cooking when I was younger. Even when I was just out of college, I was living on Can openers and Mircowaves. I don't even know when the change happened. All of a sudden, I wanted to cook. I wanted to bring joy to everyone'e mouths. I wanted to be.....a chef. Well, I've come a long way from the can opener; I put it down and just never looked back. Now the microwave is just a big defroster and I use the can opener occasionally (hey, friends are friends! Just because I grew doesn't mean I had to completely dump my old friends. Right?).
