Brenda's BBQ Chicken

12 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup olive oil
2 cups Sprite or any lemon lime soda
1 cup soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder


Marinade
: In a medium bowl combine the oil,soda, soy sauce and garlic powder.
Stir thoroughly until you have a good mixture.
Put chicken and marinate together in a plastic container and marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 7 hours. For best results I'd suggest you marinate overnight.

Barbecue this chicken slowly over a charcoal or gas fire. Turn it frequently to avoid overcooking. Baste it with marinade each time you turn it. Cook until meat is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear. Make sure you throw out any marinade that's left over. I tell you more about why in a future post.
