Grilled Chicken over Cooked Spinach

This is dedicated to everyone who can still grill.  My grill is covered in snow up the the lid right now!  If you want, double the spinach recipe because I know I can easily eat 1/2 a bag of spinach for 1 meal during Phase 2.  I miss my grill, only 5 months to go....to all who cannot grill, saute or bake your chicken in all the juices for great flavor.  George Foreman is always an option too.   If you like the marinade use it as a salad dressing too!

Grilled Chicken Over Cooked Spinach
Serves 4
Chicken with Dressing/ Marinade:
1 TB water
1 TB apple cider vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (can leave out if you do not want any spice)
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash pepper
4- 100 gram serving, boneless skinless chicken breast
Cooked Spinach:
1 green onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 TB water
1 (10 ounce) package fresh spinach, torn

In a bowl, combine the first eight ingredients; mix well. Place chicken into the marinade.  Let sit 30 minute to overnight.  Grill, uncovered, over medium heat for 7 minutes on each side or until juices run clear.  In a large skillet, saute green onion and garlic in water for 1 minute. Stir in spinach; saute for 2 minutes or until wilted. Transfer to a serving platter; top with chicken.
