]]> Chicken is our go-to source of protein, but it needs the right spices to be tasty and satisfying. These colorful marinades will add some variety to your chicken, and all you have to do is fill a bag with chicken and the marinades. The best part is that most of the ingredients for these marinades can be found in your pantry.

BBQ Chicken Marinade

Why buy barbecue sauce when you can make it at home? All you need for this marinade is to combine 2/3 cup ketchup, 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 clove garlic (grated), 1/2 teaspoon of Kosher salt, and ground black pepper (several grinds).

Chimichurri Chicken Marinade

This garlicky marinade pairs well with thighs or breasts, and it’s as simple as combining 1 cup packed parsley leaves, 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 2 teaspoons dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, 4 scallions (cut into 1-inch pieces), 3 cloves garlic (minced), 1/2 cup olive oil, zest of 1 lemon, 1/2 teaspoon of Kosher salt, and ground black pepper (several grinds).

quick weeknight dinner coming right up! remember that chimichurri from a couple weeks ago? Well I’m using it both as a marinade and a sauce in this new chimichurri chicken recipe. Easy peasy—and it can be made with either chicken breast or thighs. Your preference. The directions differ slightly, but both are equally simple. I marinate these for 30 minutes, but the longer the better (like prep these in the morning and let them marinate all day). Then toss the chicken on the grill (or in a grill pan) for BIG flavor and easy clean up. Serve the chicken with additional chimichurri sauce—it’s essential—then serve the whole lot with a fresh summer salad and/or grilled sweet potato wedges.

Teriyaki Chicken Marinade

Get some Asian flavor in your chicken by combining 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup canola oil, 3 tablespoons sugar, 2 teaspoons fresh ginger (grated), 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil, 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, 1 garlic clove (grated), and 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt.

Things I enjoy eating in this type of weather: Good bits of grilled meats and fresh salads (Along with cheeses and lots of dips but we’ll come back to that another day). Teriyaki chicken skewers and a fennel, apple and cucumber salad for the freshness. How’s everyone coping in the heat? As a winter baby, I’m losing my mind. • • • • • • #foodie #foodphotography #homecook #homecooking #japaneseflavours #teriyakichicken #chickenskewers #fennelsalad #onmytable #onmytabletoday #dinnerideas #dinner #eatdelicious #physkitchen #britainsbesthomecooks_ #instafoodgram #comfortfood #summereats #feedyoursoul #vibrantfood #londonfoodie #feedfeed #thehub_food #foodblogger #huffposttaste
