Recipe: Perfect Grapefruit Marinated Chicken Sub

Grapefruit Marinated Chicken Sub. The first time I made Citrus Marinated Grilled Chicken Sandwich I only marinated it for an hour, because I totally forgot to do it earlier. The result was good, but it didn't have enough flavor for me. Place the chicken in a nonmetallic dish.

I like to use thin cut boneless skinless chicken breasts for this recipe, because they cook quickly and evenly. Add the juice to the marinade and discard the pulp. Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserve the grapefruit and bring the liquid to a boil. You can have Grapefruit Marinated Chicken Sub using 20 ingredients and 22 steps. Here is how you cook it.

What Ingredients go into Triple Citrus Chicken Marinade? Oranges, lemon and limes - this is the perfect trio of flavor. Sweet orange and tart and tangy lemon and lime. Olive oil - this helps keep the exterior of the chicken from drying out.; Shallot and garlic - these add fresh background flavor.; Rosemary - I like to use fresh here but dried will work too if that's what you have. Combine the first eight ingredients in a large resealable plastic bag.
