FINGER LICKIN' GOOD CHICKEN MARINADE



Finger Lickin' Good Chicken Marinade image

I got the recipe for this incredibly tasty marinade from a neighbor at a cookout 17 years ago. I haven't found a better marinade for my chicken since then! I use it in baking chicken, but I mostly use it to grill chicken sandwiches, topped with Muenster cheese on a grilled Kaiser roll. Yummy!

FINGER-LICKING CHICKEN MARINADE



Finger-Licking Chicken Marinade image

A wonderful marinade for chicken. If you don't have Miracle Whip, mayonnaise may be substituted. I usually marinate chicken in the marinade at least 30 minutes before cooking. However, I once took chicken sitting in the marinade to a cook-out, and other people there who had brought their own chicken started dipping their chicken in my left-over marinade to coat, then barbecuing right away without waiting for it to marinate. It was still delicious! I've found I can coat over a dozen chicken pieces with a single recipe of the marinade. These days I make this without the Tbs of salt when making it just for myself, but people's tolerance for low salt varies widely and so I've posted it the way I've found suits most people best. I'd say be guided by your own tastes when it comes to amount of salt used.

Time 3m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup oil
1/2 cup vinegar
2 tablespoons Miracle Whip or 2 tablespoons Miracle Whip light
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon salt (to taste)
1 tablespoon pepper
2 tablespoons thyme
1 tablespoon garlic salt

Steps:

  • Whisk together all ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Use to marinate chicken pieces at least 30 minutes and then to baste the meat as it cooks in the oven or over hot coals.

Tips:

  • Use a zip-top bag or a large bowl to marinate the chicken. This will help the marinade to evenly coat the chicken and penetrate the meat.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This will give the marinade time to flavor the chicken without making it tough.
  • If you are using a store-bought marinade, be sure to read the label carefully. Some marinades contain ingredients that can be harmful if consumed raw, such as raw eggs or unpasteurized honey.
  • When cooking the chicken, be sure to preheat the oven or grill to the proper temperature. This will help the chicken to cook evenly and prevent it from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to the proper internal temperature. This will help to prevent foodborne illness.

Conclusion:

Marinating chicken is a great way to add flavor and moisture to the meat. There are many different marinade recipes available, so you can find one that suits your taste. Whether you are grilling, baking, or frying chicken, marinating it beforehand will help to make it a delicious and memorable meal.
