What a great marinade! Next time, I will marinade it much longer and put some of the marinade under the skin. I grilled a whole chicken using the tips from recipe #382457. Thanks for sharing this recipe! -
OMG! I have a quick disclaimer...I hate it when people don't follow a recipe and then feel like they need to review it BUT I really wantd to try this and it is too cold to grill here in the great NY state so I put the chicken in the marinade and then cooked it in the crockpot instead. IT IS DELICIOUS..very tender (I used chicken breasts because that's what was on sale) and so yummy. I will try it again as soon as it warms up to use my grill...I'd love to try it as it was intended.

I teach at both a high school and college several miles away from home. Cooking during the week is sometimes difficult to do so I'm always looking for easy recipes I can incorporate into a busy week. On weekends, you'll usually find me cooking up a storm for occassional leftovers for the week or to entertain guests.
My favorite tool to cook with... the grill. If I didn't live so close to the cities, I'd cook over an open pit fire every night.
