Chicken Marinade for A Nice

Hey bro, here is a little something that you can soak your chicken in over night to give it a little kick. Actually it is from a reciepe that I had posted a while back with chicken ka-bobs. The marinade works especially well with chicken cooked on the grill.
Here it is.

2 tbsp each of reduced-sodium soy sauce and brown sugar
1 tbsp each of olive oil and grated lemon zest ***
2 cloves of garlic,minced
1 large shallot,minced
1-1/2 tspgrated gingerroot
1 tsp each ground cumin and ground coriander
4 boneless,skinless chicken breast halves cut into 1 inch cubes
8 wooden or metal skewers

To make the marinade. combine all the ingredients except the chicken in a small bowl. Pour the marinade over the chicken in a large,heavy-duty,resealable plastic bag. Make sure all the pieces are coated with marinade. Marinate overnight in the refrigerator

Hope this helps,
IC

sounds good! lately i take canned pineapple and [pour the juice over the chix breats and let it chill in the frige till the evening then when i get home i toss it on the grille and just before it is ready add the slice pineapple on top!!
you can then take the chix and cut up for a salad or just eat with a side.

on the subject of marinades here is another one i experimented with and it turned out great! its also good cause u can use it either as an overnight marinade, or u can make it and put it on chicken just before grilling (obviously marinade overnight makes it better :) )

1 tbsp olive oil
lots of paprika
pinch of cayenne pepper (leave out if too spicy for ya)
lots of tumeric
lots of freshly ground black pepper
a pinch of coriander powder

if u want salt, put it only only whilst grilling the meat, never before.

ps. the chicken will look very yellowy and red, cause of the indian based spices used.

thanks so much guys. Im gonna go check these out now :)
