Chicken (& Flank Steak) Marinade


Another Great Recipe From The Black Family!
Yum!
My mouth begins to water just looking at Deb's picture. It looks so delicious!


Thanks for this great submission.


Take a zip lock bag and put the following
ingredients in it:
1 cup soy sauce
1/2 to 3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup water
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp. fresh grated ginger or if using dry powder 1/2 tsp.

Mix well inside the enclosed zip lock bag and then place about 2 lbs. of chicken in bag.

(If using flank steak, cut into 1 inch strips)

If you add more brown sugar, the sweeter the marinade - grill over low to medium flame until your desired tenderness. (For the two of us - I cut the recipe in half and put in two large chicken breasts and we made two meals out of it)

We had this on Sunday for lunch - it was wonderful on the chicken. I like trying different marinades for meats and this is one of our favorites - a little oriental - but sweet!
If you like tomatoes - here is a different recipe:

Grill Tomatoes:

Core the tomato then slice in half, place the tomato half on a baking sheet. Rub olive oil on the tomato, add a little salt (we like sea salt), add chopped fresh basil (about 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. per tomato). Turn your oven on broil and place the tray under the broiler for about 5 minutes. Pull from the oven and then sprinkle your favorite grated cheese on top. We have used feta, mozzarella and gouda. You will be surprised at the new creation on your plate. Put back under the broiler to toast and melt the cheese - about 4 to 5 minutes.

Happy grilling on the Mountain!
