- The original recipe included an optional honey lemon sauce, but this was amazing without even adding that extra step. If interested, visit the site for full recipe.
- Ingredients:
- 1 and 1/2 pounds chicken
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 lemon
- 1/2 tablespoon black pepper
- 2 teaspoons Italian flat leaf parsley, chopped
- 3 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
- 1-2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon honey
Directions:
Combine the vegetable oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, about 3-4 tablespoons lemon juice, black pepper, chopped parsley, prepared yellow mustard, 1-2 teaspoons minced garlic, depending on flavor intensity, and 1 tablespoon honey in a large bowl.
Remove 1/3 cup of the marinade and reserve for later. (I reserved the 1/3 cup of marinade and totally forgot to brush chicken with it during grilling. It wasn't missed, so if you skip this step, it honestly doesn't matter.)
Pound the chicken to even width, about 1 inch wide everywhere. This ensures even grilling.
Transfer marinade to a Ziploc bag and add the chicken. Marinade for at least 30 minutes to 6 hours. (The chicken is best at 5-6 hours. Too much longer and it tends to get salty/cooked by the vinegar.)
Make sure your grill grates are clean and greased. Preheat the grill to medium heat, 400 degrees F.
Grill the chicken until completely cooked through (about 6 minutes per side depending on heat of the grill) and it registers at 165 degrees F internally.
Generously brush chicken with the reserved marinade mix as it grills.
