Homemade Tangy Chicken Marinade

Prep Time10 minutes
Fridge4 hours
Course: Dinner
Cuisine: American

Ingredients

  • 800g chicken breast (4 large breasts)
  • 2 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon barbecue sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh thyme
  • ½ teaspoon fresh rosemary
  • ½ teaspoon chilli powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoky paprika
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Black pepper

Instructions

  • Mix the oil, ketchup, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, BBQ sauce, thyme, rosemary and honey in a bowl.
  • In a separate bowl combine the remaining ingredients and then stir into the wet mixture.
  • Lay the chicken breasts in a large dish and score each one several times. Slather over the sauce, making sure it gets right into the chicken and then turn the meat several times so each breast is well covered with the sauce.
  • Cover and leave for several hours (or if you can, overnight is even better) and then cook on the BBQ (or you could grill or bake in the oven). Enjoy!
