Sweet & Spicy Chicken Marinade

(This sauce also goes well with Quorn chicken or firm Tofu) Sufficient for 2-4 chicken breasts, double quantities if more is required.

Prep time 5min.

Ingredients:

200ml Jack Denial’s or bourbon, not Sothern comfort as this is to sweet (and is a whisky liquor))

3 Tbs. Runny honey

1 Tsp. Crushed chillies, dried or half a tsp. chilli powder

1 Large pinch cracked black pepper

1 large dash of balsamic vinegar

Half a grated onion, (must be very finely grated, alternatively it can be minced or blended)

Equipment:

Measuring jug,

Teaspoon

Fork

Wide flat dish (if marinating immediately)

Method:

1: Place onion and honey in mixing jug and mix together with fork, add remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly. Leave to stand for half to three quarters of an hour to allow flavours to fully infuse.

If storing, place in a bottle or jar and place in the fridge.

If using strait away to marinade he chicken/Quorn for at least an hour, preferably 2. I also recommend slicing the chicken breast into thin strips or the same with the Quorn fillets or into 1cm cubes if using in a salad before marinating.

Enjoy!
