Love this recipe! I put put my chicken in it before leaving for the day and grilled it in the evening. Nice zip in the marinade that made it seem special, but it was so easy and tasty! Thanks for posting.

This is a great twist on marinade by using Russian (1000 isle) dressing. It really gave it a nice zing. The use of soy sauce kept the chicken nice and tender. Served over a bed of shredded lettuce for a wonderful presentation. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
