What is the best marinade for chicken?

Question

What do you use and what is the best method?

Answer 1

my fav!

LEMON PEPPER CHICKEN MARINADE

1 bottle Italian dressing
1 bottle honey dijon dressing
1 bottle balsamic vinaigrette
1-2 tsp. lemon pepper

Combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly.
Marinate 1-2lbs of chicken (overnight for best results) and grill. Yummy stuff!



warning: this is delicious

Answer 2

In a baking pan, cover the bottom with olive oil, put in the chicken breasts and turn them over to coat. Add minced garlic, a good amount of OJ to almost cover, and a hearty splash of tequila. Then some chopped green onions. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours. Then just take them out of the marinade and grill!

I used to make this at my restaurant and I called it Margarita Chicken. It's so juicy and flavorful. (And it's not like orange chicken, you can't even taste the orange, it's just part of the flavor.)

Answer 3

Depends..
If you want a marinade or brine for doing fried chicken I use plain old sweet Iced tea, let it soak over night, then batter and fry. (It's a southern thing)
For baked or grilled chicken I cheat. I like the lawry's 30 minute marinades, easy and delicious. I have tried just about all of them, the lemon pepper, ginger, thai, garlic and herb all were excellent.

For 6-8 pieces of chicken:

3/4 cup of honey
