Worlds Best Chicken Marinade Food

THE BEST BUTTER CHICKEN

Steps:

• For the marinade: Whisk together the yogurt, salt, ginger and garlic in a large bowl until combined. Toss the chicken in the seasoned yogurt marinade until evenly coated. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours and up to 24. (Overnight works best.)
• For the sauce: Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large Dutch oven or wide heavy pot over medium heat. Toss the fenugreek seeds, bay leaves, cardamom, cinnamon and clove in the butter and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly darker and very fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the onions, season with 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden and beginning to caramelize, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until very fragrant and the ginger starts to turn golden and sticks to the bottom of the pot, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garam masala and chili powder and cook, stirring occasionally, until very fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, breaking them up into pieces with a spoon, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced by half and the tomatoes are very tender, about 30 minutes. Discard the bay leaves and cinnamon stick (but leave the other whole spices).
• Let the hot sauce cool for about 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. (If your blender is small, you may need to work in batches.) Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the cream to the blender and puree until creamy. Pour into a clean pot and bring to a simmer. Season with salt.
• Meanwhile, arrange a rack directly under the broiler and preheat to high. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack inside.
• Arrange the chicken in a single layer on the rack. Broil until the chicken starts to brown in spots, 3 to 6 minutes per side (it will not be cooked through). Remove from the broiler. When cool enough to handle, cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces. Add the chicken to the simmering sauce, cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Stir in the cilantro. Serve with rice and naan alongside.

GRILLED CHICKEN MARINADE

Steps:

• Whisk vinegar, soy sauce, olive oil, parsley, basil, oregano, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator, at least 4 hours.
• Preheat grill for medium-low heat and lightly oil the grate. Drain and discard marinade.
• Grill chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center, 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

CHICKEN MARINADE

Steps:

• If making chicken breasts, place them on a cutting board, cover with plastic wrap, and with a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound into an even thickness. (If using tenders or thighs, you can skip the pounding).
• With a fork, poke holes all over the chicken (this will allow the marinade to absorb).
• In a large ziptop bag, combine the garlic, lemon zest and juice, olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper.
• Add the chicken. Seal the bag, removing as much excess air as possible.
• "Squish" the bag to coat the chicken, then place the bag on a plate or inside a shallow baking dish to guard against leaks.
• Marinate the chicken at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes (the longer the better), or refrigerate for up to 12 hours (I find about 5 to 6 hours is ideal-since this is a small amount of lemon juice, you can push to 24 hours if absolutely necessary). Do not let marinade for longer, or the meat will start to break down. Let the chicken stand at room temperature for 15 minutes prior to cooking.
• When ready to cook: Preheat your grill to medium high (425 to 450 degrees F) or preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Remove the chicken from the marinade, shaking off any excess.
• To grill: cook chicken over high heat until charred in spots and the internal temperature reaches 160 to 165 degrees F on an instant read thermometer, flipping halfway through, about 8 to 12 minutes total for breasts or thighs or 4 to 8 minutes for tenders. Do not overcook!
• To bake: Arrange the chicken in a single layer in a foil- or parchment-lined baking dish large enough to hold it comfortably without the chicken touching. Bake the chicken until it reaches 160 F to 165 degrees F on an instant read thermometer inserted at the thickest part. Don't overcook! For breasts you will need about 14 to 16 minutes (for small/medium breasts that are about 6 to 7 ounces), 16 to 20 minutes (for medium/large breasts that are 8 to 10 ounces), or 20 to 25 minutes (for larger breasts). Bake thighs or tenders for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove the chicken to a plate and cover. Let rest for at least 5 minutes. Serve!

WORLDS BEST CHICKEN STIR-FRY FOR TWO

Steps:

• Saute sliced chicken in hot oil until one side is cooked and then add white onion while turning chicken.
• Cook until onions are very soft.
• Toss in red and green peppers, mushrooms and green onion and continue sauteing over med/high heat.
• Stir in Cilantro, garlic powder, ginger, salt and pepper.
• (If you use a very salty soy sauce you might not want to add salt)
• Continue cooking until red and green peppers are soft.
• Once peppers are soft stir in Marsala wine and soy sauce, continue cooking over med/high heat until almost all of the liquid has evaporated and you are left with a thick sauce.
• Pour over a bed of rice and serve.
• NOTE*It is very important to keep cooking until nearly all of the liquid has evaporated because you want the flavor of the soy sauce and wine on the vegetables NOT on the plate in a puddle.
• If you prefer extra sauce for the rice just use more soy sauce and wine but make sure you burn off most of the excess water or your dish will lack flavor and be too liquidy.
• Adding a little extra olive oil will always help to thicken the sauce.
• Enjoy.

THE BEST EVER GRILLED CHICKEN MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a large ziplock bag.
• Add chicken to the bag and place the closed ziplock bag in a large bowl and put in the fridge. (The bowl will keep it from making a huge mess in case the bag leaks)
• Marinade for at least 8 hours or overnight and grill! Enjoy!
• (I do not add any extra salt to my chicken marinade because salt will dry the chicken out. ALWAYS salt the chicken AFTER you grill it to ensure. It will need a good bit of salt after it is done)

THE BEST GRILLED CHICKEN MARINADE EVER

Steps:

• Place all of the ingredients except for the vegetables in a medium bowl or large Ziploc bag and stir to combine. Place bowl or bag in the refrigerator and let sit for 1 hour.
• Preheat grill to 400ºF.
• Soak skewers in vegetable oil or spray down with non-stick cooking spray. Thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers, alternating with veggies. Salt and pepper your veggies.
• Place kabobs on grill and let cook for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.

GRILLED CHICKEN MARINADE

Steps:

• Whisk the marinade ingredients together in a freezer bag or glass bowl. Add chicken to the marinade and turn to coat. Marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate up to 12 hours (the longer the better).
• When ready to cook, remove chicken from the refrigerator and let rest 15-30 minutes before cooking.

THE WORLD'S BEST ALL-PURPOSE MEAT MARINADE

Steps:

• Add all of the ingredients to a medium size glass bowl.
• Using an immersion blender, blend all of the ingredients together.
• Pour the marinade into a glass jar and screw on the lid. Let the flavors meld in refrigerator overnight.
• When ready to use, place the meat in a zip lock bag. Pour enough of the marinade over the meat so that it is covered with the seasoning.
• Marinate for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours. The longer it marinates, the better the seasoning penetration.
• If you're marinating chicken, marinate under 2 hours. The texture of the meat does not do well with long marinates in acidic liquids such as vinegars or citrus.
