Just a great Chicken Marinade

This is such a great Chicken Marinade – it infuses chicken with savoury flavour as well as making it extra juicy! Particularly great for chicken breast though it can be used for any cut.

Ingredients :

  • 700g / 1.4 lb chicken breast, tenderloins or thigh
  • 2 tbsp honey OR brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 5 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 garlic cloves , minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper , ground

Directions :

  1. Recommended: Pound breast to even thickness using a meat pounder, rolling pin, or fist. OR cut large ones in half horizontally to form 2 cutlets (steaks) for each.
  2. Mix marinade in a ziplock bag (or container in which chicken fits snugly). Add chicken.
  3. Marinate 3 hours to overnight, though even 30 minutes is effective. (Note 2)
  4. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat, and cook chicken per times below until deep golden (see video). If browning too quickly, lower heat.
  5. Transfer to serving plate, cover loosely with foil and rest for 3 minutes before serving, garnished with parsley and lemon slices if desired.
