Grilled Chicken Marinades

We had a family lunch today to celebrate Chris's birthday and Chris grilled two different kinds of chicken. The first is called Bengal BBQ chicken and is served at Disneyland. Chris said he just asked for the recipe and they gave it to him. Lucky for him because he loves it.

Chris said he found the second recipe online somewhere years ago. He doesn't know what it's called so I'm calling it Sprite Chicken.

Bengal BBQ
1 c. soy sauce
1 1/2 c. water
1 tbsp ground black pepper
3 tbsp sesame seed oil
1 tsp ground red pepper
1 tsp cayenne pepper (original recipe only called for 1/2 tsp, but Chris always uses 1 tsp)
1 tbsp fresh garlic
1 tbsp corn starch

Mix all but corn starch. Bring to a low boil over medium heat. Add corn starch to thicken. Marinate in a gallon size ziploc bag for approximately 6 hours. Grill.

*Note: As far as how much chicken this will make, Chris said it's enough marinade for a gallon sized ziploc bag full of chicken.

*Note: This one is on the hotter/spicier side. If you like a little bit of a kick, but not a lot you might want to use only 1/2 a tsp of the cayenne pepper.

Sprite Chicken
1 can Sprite (you can also use 7-Up)
1 cup Soy Sauce
1 tbsp minced garlic (you could also use garlic powder)

Marinate in a gallon size ziploc bag for overnight before grilling.

*Note: As far as how much chicken this will make, Chris said it's enough marinade for a gallon sized ziploc bag full of chicken.

Serve with grilled potatoes, veggies, grilled potatoes with veggies, watermelon (if you're a Parson this is a must), salad, etc.

Enjoy!
