Mom's SECRET Recipe: Grilled 7-UP Chicken

November 23, 2012

Okay, so maybe it isn't TOP SECRET, but that makes it sounds exciting, right? This is hands-down my favorite marinade of all time. My mom has been making it for as long as I can remember and everyone always asks for the recipe when she does. The chicken has amazing flavor and it INCREDIBLY moist. It tastes awesome with pork too! The first time I made this was shortly after I was married. I still remember my husband taking a bite and exclaiming, "This is so good! I am so glad that I married you!"

4 chicken breasts
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 tsp Horseradish (it tastes okay without this, but I highly recommend using it! Adds the perfect amount of zip!!)
1 (12 oz) can of lemon-lime soda pop (not diet)
1/4 cup vegetable oil

Mix all ingredients together in a Ziploc bag. Add chicken breasts and marinate for at least 30 minutes (although the longer you go, the better they taste! I usually marinate my chicken for at least 8 hours...
