How Do You Marinate Chicken The Easy Way?
Marinating chicken can be time consuming, but if you prep the chicken ahead of time, it can be as easy as pulling the chicken out of the freezer. Purchase chicken and divide into serving sizes appropriate for your family. Tenderize chicken using meat tenderizer. If you do not own a meat tenderizer a fork will do. Make sure to tenderize both sides. Place chicken in freezer bag and pour enough marinade in to cover the chicken. Shake the bag to make sure marinade is evenly distributed. Seal the freezer bag, and mark with date and type of marinade. Make sure you use a permanent marker and that it is dry before you place the chicken in the freezer. Then place the chicken in the freezer until needed. Remove from freezer the day you plan to use it. The marinade will soak into the chicken as it thaws. The chicken will have a great taste without having to baste it while it is in the oven or on the grill.
