Recipe For Mesquite Marinade Food

MESQUITE CHICKEN MARINADE

Steps:

• Add oil, mesquite seasoning, lemon juice, salt, and water to a ziplock bag. Close the bag and shake/mix contents.
• Add chicken to bag and reseal. Allow chicken to sit in the marinade for a minimum of 30 minutes, ideally 24 hours.
• Remove chicken from marinade and cook using the desired method. We grilled ours because the smokey flavor of the grill perfectly compliments the flavors in the marinade. Make sure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165F.

MESQUITE GRILLED CHICKEN MARINADE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, salt, pepper, garlic powder, liquid smoke, and Worcestershire sauce.
• Place chicken in a large Ziploc bag. Pour marinade over the top of chicken. Seal and marinade a minimum 2 hours or overnight.
• Once done marinating, grill the chicken until cooked, flipping halfway through. (Be careful. Since there is quite a bit of sugar in the marinade, watch closely so the chicken does not burn.)
