Herb Marinade For Grilled Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• In a blender combine the parsley, rosemary, thyme, sage, garlic, oil, vinegar and salt and pepper to taste. Blend together. Place chicken in a nonporous glass dish or bowl and pour blended marinade over the chicken. Cover dish and refrigerate to marinate for at least 2 hours or up to 48 hours.
• Preheat grill to medium high heat OR set oven to broil.
• Remove chicken from dish (disposing of leftover marinade) and grill or broil for about 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together (except meat) and whisk thoroughly.
• Put cleaned and dried meat in a large 8 x 11-inch glass baking pan and pour marinade over all, being sure to coat well.
• Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in refrigerator for 24 to 48 hours.
• Drain meat and grill, basting with marinade until meat is cooked through.
• NOTE: This is excellent served leftover, cold on a Caesar salad!

Steps:

• In non-reactive bowl, combine garlic, lemon juice, olive oil and herbs.
• Put chicken breasts in large zip-lock bag, and pour marinade over chicken.
• Refrigerate chicken in the marinade for 1 to 6 hours.
• Remove chicken from refrigerator 1 hour before grilling.
• Place chicken breasts skin side down on preheated grill.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and grill for about 7 minutes on each side depending on thickness of meat.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients into a jar, close tightly, shake well.
• Pour into ziploc baggie, add chicken pieces, marinate about 4 hours.
• Grill til chicken is done.
• You can salt and pepper chicken just before grilling if you prefer.

Steps:

• Puree cumin, coriander, peppercorn and cardamom in a blender until very fine. Add parsley, mint, oregano, garlic, fresno, salt, vinegar and ¼ cup oil and puree until a thick pesto like paste forms. Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag and pour in marinade. Seal bag, pressing out any air. Chill at least 3 hours and up to 24.
• Prepare a grill for medium-high, indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off). Thoroughly clean grates and brush with oil. Set chickens, skin side up, on grate over indirect heat. Cover grill, placing cover vent (if your grill has one) over chickens so it draws heat up and over them. Grill, rotating chickens as needed so that they color evenly, until skins are lightly browned, 15-20 minutes.
• Turn chickens and continue to cook, covered, until skins are deep golden brown and crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breasts registers 160°, 20-25 minutes. Transfer chickens to a cutting board and let rest at least 10 minutes before carving.
• Mix olives, lemon juice, chopped parsley, remaining ¼ cup oil, and any accumulated juices from chicken on the cutting board in a medium bowl. Season with salt.
• To serve, arrange carved chickens on a platter and top with olive mixture and parsley leaves.

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine the lemon juice and zest, chopped herbs, garlic, crushed red pepper, and 1/2 cup of olive oil. Whisk to combine.
• Place the chicken thighs in a wide flat dish so they are in a single layer. Add the herb mixture. Massage the thighs to coat with the herb mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Note: If doing a quick marinade, leave the chicken out of the fridge for up to 1 hour.
• Preheat grill. Brush and oil the grill to clean.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and brush off any excess herbs and oil. Season the chicken generously with salt and drizzle with a little bit of fresh olive oil.
• Cut the 2 whole lemons in half and cut the tips off the ends; this will allow the lemons to stand up without rolling around. Place the chicken, skin side down, on the preheated grill. Place the lemons, flesh side down, on the preheated grill. Grill the chicken for 3 to 4 minutes and then rotate the chicken 90 degrees to create the lovely crosshatch pattern. Grill the chicken for another 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the chicken over and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes. Check for doneness (the chicken should be well cooked). Check the lemon halves to see if they are beautifully caramelized. Turn over to grill on the bottom for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Serve the chicken with grilled lemon.

Steps:

• One by one, place the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, or inside of a resealable plastic bag, and pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin or heavy-bottomed pan until about 1/2-inch thick. In a glass baking dish, combine the zest and all but 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice with 1/4 cup of the olive oil, the shallot, garlic, and a little more than 2 tablespoons of each of the chopped fresh herbs. (Reserve the remaining chopped herbs.) Add the pounded chicken breasts to the herb mixture and turn to coat. Season generously with salt and pepper, cover the dish with plastic wrap, and put in the refrigerator to marinate, at least 20 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saute pan over high heat. Add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook, turning once, until cooked through and golden brown on both sides, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Cook the breasts 2 at a time if the pan is too small. Transfer to a serving platter and keep warm.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and the white wine to the pan, scraping to loosen any brown bits, and reduce until almost dry. Add the chicken broth and reduce by half, then off the heat add the reserved herbs and cold butter, swirling to melt the butter and thicken the sauce. Pour over the chicken paillards and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Stir the stock, lemon juice, basil, thyme and black pepper in a small bowl.
• Lightly oil the grill rack and heat the grill to medium. Grill the chicken for 35 minutes or until it's cooked through, turning the chicken over halfway through grilling and brushing often with the stock mixture. Discard the remaining stock mixture.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together and marinade chicken overnight.

Steps:

• Combine garlic, oregano, rosemary, and oil in a large resealable plastic bag; season with salt and pepper. Add chicken wings, seal bag, and turn to coat. Chill at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Prepare grill for medium heat. Remove wings from marinade and grill, covered and turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp, 15-20 minutes.
• DO AHEAD: Chicken can be marinated 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the water, vinegar, oil, garlic, thyme, Italian-style seasoning, poultry seasoning, rosemary, salt and ground black pepper. Mix well and apply to your favorite meat.
