Homemade dinners are very important to me. As crazy as schedules get, including my husband and I both working full time out of the house now, we still strive to have family dinners. Some nights, we have more time to cook and other nights time is tight. On top of all of that, I want meals to be as healthy as possible for my family. One menu staple I always turn to is fresh chicken. It's versatile, easy to fix, and my children love it! But I also want to select chickens that are raised without antibiotics, vegetarian fed and I also appreciate chicken that is grown on the West Coast, close to my home in Oregon.
Foster Farms Simply Raised chicken is just that. It's a major evolution for the brand,
partly in response to the demand from millennial parents wanting healthier chicken options for their family. Foster Farms has been a family-owned business since 1939. With this new line of chicken, they are undergoing a true evolution of their brand.
That evolution includes no added sodium to the chicken, American Humane Certified, and is minimally processed with no added preservatives.
The recipe I created with Foster Farms Simply Raised chicken is so easy to make! It's a
skewer-style recipe.....just dice and stack the chicken on skewers, drizzle with the easy-
to-prepare sauce, grill and it's done.
Lime Ginger Chicken Skewers
Serves 4-6
Ingredients:
Foster Farms Simply Raised thin sliced breast fillets
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon basil
1 1/2 teaspoon ginger
1 lime
Cut chicken into 1 inch thick cubes. Gently line on wood skewers. Mix all dry spices together (except the dry mustard) and evenly sprinkle on both sides of the chicken. Mix olive oil, maple syrup, and dry mustard. Blend well.
Transfer skewers to grill heated to medium. Place on grill and brush both sides with the olive oil mixture. Cooking times will vary, but they should be done in 7-10 minutes. Baste 2-3 more times while the chicken cooks.
Simple, easy, delicious. I hope you enjoy it!
