Grilled Citrus Chicken and Linguine

Here's a wonderful grilled chicken dish with savory sauce and the squeeze of grilled lemon just takes it over the top.


Ingredients:
1/2 pound Barilla linguine
1 chicken breasts
1/4 cup honey
1/4 lemon Juice
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
1/4 cup white wine
1 lemon cut in half
Italian parsley

Preparation:

Take the chicken breast and rinse in cold water and dry. Cut the chicken breast in half lengthwise so it's 1/2 as thick. Place some plastic wrap over you cutting board and then place one of the chicken breast pieces. Cover the chicken breast with plastic wrap and use your meat pounder to flatten the thickest part of the chicken breast so the entire chicken breast is the same thickness. Repeat with the rest of the chicken pieces. Place in a plastic Ziploc until your ready to grill.

 

Fill a large stock pot with water and add 1 tablespoon salt and bring to a boil. Add the pasta and stir occasionally so the pasta cooks evenly. Cook the pasta according to directions which is 7 - 10 to perfect al dente. When done, drain and set a side until you're ready to plate.

 

Heat the grill to medium high. Cut the lemon in half and place on the grill while your grilling the chicken. Take the chicken and brush on some olive oil and then add some salt and pepper. Grill the chicken breast 3 - 4 minutes per side. This should go pretty quick because the chicken breast is fairly thin. When done, remove from the grill and cover with foil and set a side until you're ready to plate.

 

Take a 10" sauté pan and add the honey, lemon juice, orange juice, wine and Sriracha. Bring up to a boil and then turn down to medium heat. When the sauce educes by half, you're done.  

 

To serve, place a portion of linguine on a serving plate. Place a grilled chicken breast on the linguine and spoon on some sauce. Garnish with the grilled lemon and chopped Italian parsley.
