Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
- 4 cloves Fresh garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme (chopped)
- 0.25 cup Chicken stock (optional for additional flavor)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, and honey. Whisk together until fully emulsified.
Add the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, salt, and crushed red pepper flakes to the bowl. Stir to distribute the seasonings evenly.
Stir in the minced garlic, fresh rosemary, and fresh thyme for an extra layer of flavor. Mix well.
If desired, add the chicken stock for additional depth. Whisk the mixture again until fully combined.
Place your poultry (chicken thighs, breasts, drumsticks, or whole chicken) in a large sealable plastic bag or a non-reactive container.
Pour the marinade over the poultry, making sure all the pieces are evenly coated.
Seal the bag or cover the container tightly, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably 4-6 hours or overnight for maximum flavor penetration.
Once marinated, remove the poultry from the marinade and discard the used marinade. Cook the poultry as desired—grill, bake, or pan-sear—until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve hot and enjoy the bold, smoky, and zesty flavors of Firehouse Event Poultry Marinade!
