Need Help With Point Count

  • I have a favorite recipe for grilled chicken, which serves 4. The marinade calls for 3 T of olive oil. Since it is grilled, how much of the oil should I take into account with points? It would be a little less than 1 T per serving, but won't a lot of it evaporate?

    Thanks!
  • Oil doesn't evaporate. 3T is 12 points. There is really no way to tell how much is absorbed by the chicken.
  • Thanks!
  • You could also see how much marinade is left in the bowl when you remove the chicken, and subtract that from the original recipe.
