Name: Broiled Chicken Breasts

Ingredients:

• 1.5 lbs of chicken breasts (microwave defrost if frozen ~15 min)
• olive oil
• seasoning (paprika, spicy seasoning)

Instructions:

• Pre-heat boiler.
• Rub chicken with oil and set on broiler pan at least 6 inches below heating element.
• Broil 15 minutes on first side (20 min made them a little tough)
• Turn over. Baste and sprinkle seasoning.
• Broil for 10 more minutes.

Comments: Using the seasoning recipe for Oven-Roasted Ribs, without the salt, gave the impression of Cajun blackened chicken. It wasn't too bad.
9/22/02 - A mixture of garlic powder, basil, and marjoram was OK
5/8/04 - Broiling in George Forman for 9 min left chicken a little tough
1/9/05 - A mixture of sage, thyme, majoram, and a little garlic powder was good
8/26/2020 - We had 15 oz of chicken thighs. I thawed them in the microwave with 2 minutes on one side, flipping them, and 2 minutes on the other side. For spices, I had 1/4 teaspoon each of garlic powder, majoram, and thyme; we were out of sage. They were good after cooking for 8 minutes in the George Forman.
