What is the absolute best marinade for chicken breasts?!


Question: and for how long?


Answers: and for how long?

Italian dressing overnight. It sounds weird, but the taste will make you fall in love!!!!

lemon pepper and for overnight

Buttermilk, couple hours

Honey! For a few hours.

Kraft or any brand Italian salad dressing.. Tastes Great...

PINEAPPLE JUICE, THEN COAT IN CHILI POWDER AND GRILL

citrus.. the seasoning is up to you, and time again depends on your taste preference

Try beer, no kidding. Add lemon juice on top of the chicken after you take out the chicken out of the beer, before cooking.

olive oil, 2 garlic cloves (chopped), Thyme, Rosemary, Montreal Steak Seasoning. (30 - 60 minutes.)

roasted tomato and herb dressing ... it's awesome and you don't have to add anything to it.

I really like the lime vinagrette Paul Newman's salad dressing...zesty! Marinade for a few hours.

Teriyaki or Herb & Garlic Marinade,by Lawry's the instructions say 30 minute, but I do mine over night in the frig for extra flavor. Yummy!

This is the best I've ever tried, enjoy!


Spicy Cajun Grilled Shrimp, Fish, Pork, or Chicken

1/3 cup soy sauce or Kikoman Teriyaki Marinade
? cup virgin olive oil
1 to 5 tbs cajun seasoning mix (without salt), depending on how hot you like it
? cup sesame oil
? cup fresh lemon juice
2 tbs fresh ginger
2 tsp dry mustard
2 tsp tabasco
32 large fresh uncooked shrimp (no shells, with or without tails and de-veined)
Bamboo skewers (1 for about 5 shrimp)

Add shrimp to marinade for 20-30 minutes. Soak skewers in water. When shrimp is ready put on skewers and barbeque on high heat for about 2 minutes per side.

This is an excellent marinade for fish and chicken, you can cook whole and omit the skewers and grill or make kabobs.

grated garlic and italian dressing for something really simple. you can marinade for 30 mins to overnight. or if you really want you can put it in a freezer bag and freeze it get all the air out. when it thaws again it will be delish.

another one of my favs is 1/2 tsp pepper 1/2 tsp salt 1 tablespoon oil 1 grated garlic clove. this is the very best on steak but great on chicken. again marinade 30 mins to overnight.

OJ salt pepper fresh garlic celantro jalapeno if you want spice ( all to taste) put all in a zip top bag then add the chicken to it allow to sit over night.....then dice up a red onion red pepper or a jalapeno for spice celantro mango in a bowl add salt pepper and fresh garlic to taste cover with plastic wrap allow to stand over night...Grill the chicken pour the left over mairnade over the chicken while cooking...serve the chicken with the mango slaw on top....can loose!!!

Bob Marley's Reggae: Jerk Marinated Chicken Breast Skewers, Chargrilled and Served with Creamy Cucumber Dipping Sauce and Yucca Fries
For the Jerk Marinade:
1 onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped scallion
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground Jamaican pimento (allspice)
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 hot pepper, finely ground (or 2 Scotch bonnet peppers)
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon cooking oil

2 pounds chicken breast, dice 1/2-inch thick
12 wooden skewers, soaked in water for 2 hours
Green tai leaves
2 pounds fresh Yucca, peeled, cut into fries
1 recipe cucumber sauce, recipe follows
Fresh pineapple wedges


For the marinade: mix together onion, scallion, thyme, salt, sugar, allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, hot pepper, black pepper, soy sauce, oil and vinegar. These ingredients can also be combined in a food processor. Preheat the fryer. Skewer 2 1/2 ounces of chicken onto each skewer. Place the skewers in a shallow baking dish and cover with the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight. Place the skewers onto a hot grill and grill until done, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Place the Yucca fries in the fryer and fry the fries until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt. Place 3 of the skewers on the left side of the plate. Place green tai leaf on the other end of the plate and top with a wedge of fresh pineapple. Place 6 ounces of cooked yucca fries in the middle of the plate. Place 3 ounces of cucumber sauce in a souffle cup next to the skewers and serve.

CUCUMBER DIPPING SAUCE:
25 ounces cucumber
7 ounces sour cream
7 ounces mayonnaise
1-ounce cider vinegar
1/2-ounce salt
Pinch cayenne pepper
1/2-ounce Dijon mustard
1/2-ounce chopped garlic

Peel and seed cucumbers and roughly chop. Add sour cream and mayonnaise. Add rest of ingredients and puree in a blender. Yield: about 1 1/2 quarts

My current favorite is coffee, sometimes brewed double-strong, with spices, liquid smoke, onions, and/or garlic, or just plain. I usually put the breasts in the marinade frozen and leave them until they thaw.

depends on your bra
