How do I Marinate Chicken for a Grill ???
I tried to grill a chicken the other day (I put thighs and breasts on the grill and waited for an hour), but it came out rather dry and tasteless/ I heard it needs to be marinated before grilling. How do I do that ??? Thank you in advance.
Answers:
just to give you an idea, when i make grilled chicken wings (bone included), it takes me no more than 5 minutes to cook the chicken wing.
i would recommend using boneless chicken since it'll cook much faster.
a simple marinade: 1 cup shoyu, 1/2 cup sugar or fruit juice, 1 cup water, (optional-chopped/minced ginger, onion, and garlic). marinade at least an hour, overnight better. right before grilling, add quarter cup of oil and grill. start with high heat, grill the meat. the oil will prevent sticking.
if meat it thin, then flip it over. if meat is thicker, then cook at lower heat for several minutes, turn the heat up and flip the meat over. turn heat lower and cook till meat looks plump.
don't flip the chicken over and over again since this will make it dry.
bon appetit!
