I love cooking with herbs because it’s a healthy way to incorporate a lot of fresh flavor into a dish and in this dish. The chicken is marinated for no more than 2 hours in the sauce. Anytime you have citrus in a marinade, it is best to not marinade any meat or fish for more than 2 hours because it can start to ‘cook’ the meat and the meat with turn weird. Half of the marinade is used and the other half is reserved for serving. Basil, cilantro and rosemary make this a bright and fresh sauce with a little sweetness from good honey. Please do not ever use a marinade that has come in contact with raw meat, always discard after use. As you’ve seen me do many times over the past 2 + years, I like to feature entire meals in my posts, like Grilled Lemongrass Chicken Skewers with Lemongrass Vegetable Noodle Salad. This gives you my readers, meal planning ideas and also makes for pretty and complete pictures so I’m not just posting a picture of one dish. On this occasion, I served the chicken alongside slow cooker carrots and crispy layered rosemary potatoes. Another easy side which is also grilled, Grilled Parmesan Garlic and Basil Corn on the Cob. What herbs are best for the sauce? As you know, I like to give you options and there are those of you out there who just don’t like cilantro. No problem, use parsley instead. In fact, use any combination of herbs you like. I like mint and parsley, rosemary mint and parsley, whatever takes your fancy.
