ULTRA EASY MARINADES FOR ROAST, GRILLED BBQ'd CHICKEN

Brighten up chicken with marinades/sauces that provide a delightful pop of flavour...and do yourself a favour with this wallet-friendly  protein.  

Chicken legs continue to be a bargain at £1.50 for 600gm/21oz (usually 3) but the marinades suit equally budget-friendly wings, thighs or if you're splurging, breasts.

The recipes are quickly made but need a few hours or overnight in the fridge; life will be so much easier on cooking day. 

The marinades are in the body of the recipes; instructions are below photos...




Oyster Sauce, Ginger, Lime Marinade: one for when you're rifling through the freezer for something for dinner



Easy Cajun Seasoning: (with a little help from supermarket friends)




Maple Mustard: turns ordinary chicken into something really special 




Dominican Style: a touch of the Caribbean with ketchup, soy sauce & lime







Orange Hoisin: exotic Far Eastern flavours with a bit of optional booze







Basque Style: rich with pimento & garlic,  in a fabulously good way!





Method:

  1. (carefully) slash the flesh to near the bone,  generously brush on the marinade, pushing it into the cuts
  2. Refrigerate a few hours or overnight
  3. Save leftover marinade for brushing on while cooking
  4. Bake in oven, under the grill or on a Barbie...timing depends on size of joint
