ANCIENT EGYPTIAN CHICKEN
Based off a marinade recipe, I used this for a whole chicken that I then cooked in a broiler. Brine chicken overnight in a salt/sugar/water mix first to draw out unwanted fluids and to tenderize the meat. After soaking, marinate the chicken as directed.

Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight. Bring the meat to room temperature before cooking.
- While the meat is warming to room temp.Prepare a fire in a charcoal grill or preheat your oven broiler (griller) Remove the meat from the marinade, reserving the marinade. You can marinate for up to 48 hours if properly refrigerated.
