chicken marinade recipes

When grilling or broiling, the chicken will have a tendency to dry out so it must be watched carefully during the cooking process. Coating the chicken with a little oil or marinating it will aid in preventing it from drying out while cooking. Also, the temperature at which the chicken is cooked and the distance the chicken is from the heat source are both important to tender, juicy, properly cooked chicken.

Buying and Cooking your own chicken at home can be fun and rewarding. Here are some easy and quick tips for you to keep in mind as you get going...

* Grilling marinated chicken is the main reason why our meats produce some very nice flavors and it makes our meats juicier.

* Without a proper fire, you can not expect great results.

* To prevent dryness, leave the skin on the chicken during cooking, which helps preserves the chicken's natural moisture.

* Marinate your meats.

* It is also important to refrigerate leftovers from grilling promptly. Don't leave them on the counter top, at room temperature, for very long after you have finished eating.
