Ingredients
-
8 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (about 2-1/2 lb. total)

-
4 cloves garlic, minced
-
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper

1.
Place chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag set in a bowl. For marinade, in a small bowl combine wine or apple juice, oil, honey, mustard, garlic, pepper, and salt. Pour marinade over chicken; seal bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours, turning bag occasionally.
