I love a marinade. Marinades do all the heavy flavor lifting for you. Five minutes of whisking ingredients makes the whole family think you hung the moon.
But you can’t buy store-bought marinades or you risk nasty seed oils, sugar, grains, gums, or other such nonsense infiltrating your concoction.
One day I will release my first three dressing/marinade flavors over at Eat Happy Kitchen’s store, and they will be clean, real, and delicious.
But until then, I will keep inventing new marinade recipes to turn your cheap cuts of meat into a delicious extravaganza of a dinner.
Here are a few other marinade based recipes that I swear by (in addition to the many in my cookbooks):
Italian Dressing (use this on anything, I promise)
Lime Salsa Verde (eat it plain, soak some meats in it before cooking or use it in Beef Enchiladas Verdes)
So now, let’s get to this delicious recipe, perfectly zesty, without a speck of sugar in sight. I love love love this chicken, and as usual, I’ll be obsessed with it, make it a bajillion times, and then move on to the next marinade recipe I invent. I hope you do too.
