I don't know about you but for me summer equals grilling. I love a tasty burger, flavorful chicken or a juicy steak on the barbie. I grew up with a full grill but came into a marriage with a husband who's family is not big on grilling. We had a small camping type grill but I dreamed of bigger. Well a couple weeks ago we got this beauty at Home Depot on a reported "Black Friday" deal for summer. Nothing super fancy but better than I was hoping for.
We christened it with hot dogs and chicken. Not my ideal but I was too excited to use it to wait for our next trip to the grocery store. We used a friends' chicken marinade recipe with some "ooops..crap" mistakes. I'm including their version and ours below for your grilling fancy. Both are delicious.
Grilled Chicken Marinade #1 (ours)
16 oz Sprite
1 C Worcestershire sauce (I didn't read the bottle and thought it was soy....ooooops)
1 C Vegetable oil
1/4 tsp Garlic powder
1/4 C squeezed orange juice (I didn't have lemon juice...crap)
Let it marinade in the fridge for 12-24 hours and then grill. Covers 4-6 chicken breasts.
Grill Chicken Marinade #2 (theirs)
16 oz sprite
1 C Soy sauce
1 C Vegetable oil
1/4 Garlic powder
1/4 C lemon juice
Let it marinade in the fridge for 12-24 hours and then grill. Covers 4-6 chicken breasts.
