Chicken Scampi

This recipe is what my lovely wife cooked up for us last night. Although the reviews were mixed I thought it was extremely tasty. The jasmine rice was just the prefect combo with this warm dish. It very much reminded me of Indian food. If you want less spice/warmth cut down the Worcestershire sauce. Also reserve some lemons to squeeze over the dish as your eating. It really contrasts beautifully with the warm chicken and sauce.

  • 5 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch strips
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 2 cups cooked Jasmine Rice

  1. Combine chicken with ground pepper, cheese, parsley, garlic, salt, oregano, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce and wine in a shallow bowl. Marinate in the refrigerator for several hours (overnight is best).

  2. Preheat broiler. Remove chicken from marinade (save marinade) and place in a shallow pan. Broil 8 inches from heat, turning once, until chicken is no longer pink inside (about 15 minutes).

  3. In a small saucepan, bring marinade to a boil. Pour over chicken, toss and serve over rice. Yummy!
