I used two teaspoons of anise that I ground in my "spice" coffee grinder because I didn't have star anise. I also heated up the marinade in the microwave to allow the spices to blend. I put the cut up chicken in and marinaded for 4 hours in the refrigerator. My son and husband both thought it was great!!! -
Yup. A nice, easy way to cook chicken. I used boneless breasts. I did a bad job of following directions - I just mixed up the marinade & added it to the chicken until I cooked it. It was deeeelicious!!
