- In a small bowl, mix garlic, 1 teaspoon of the salt, basil and the oil. Add additional oil if necessary. (I found a mortar and pestle to work best. Adding the salt to the garlic will help mash the garlic to a paste. Then just add basil and oil and use the pestle to finish)
- Gently place the breasts into a gallon zip lock bag and marinate refrigerated for four hours and up to 12 hours.
