Broiled Pepper Chicken image

I got this recipe back in 1989 out of a Betty Crocker cookbook called "Make it Light" It's a quick and easy dish to prepare (using boneless chicken) and has a nice kick to it. I have made it even lighter and quicker by using skinless chicken breast with out bones. Cooks up in half the time. This is a great dish to make after a hard day at work.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (2 1/2-3 lb) broiler-fryer chickens
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons dried marjoram
1 -1 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons margarine or 2 teaspoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Cut chicken into pieces: cut each breast half into halves. (I just use the boneless chicken breast). Mix oil, marjoram, red pepper, margarine and salt; brush chicken on both sides with margarine mixture.
  • Place chicken, skin sides down, on rack in broiler pan. Set oven control to broil. Broil chicken with tops 7 to 9 inches from heat 30 minutes; (15 mins for boneless) turn. Broil until brown and thickest pieces are done 20 to 30 minutes longer. (I will sometimes throw them on the BBQ.).
