We've been using this each summer when we grill. The chicken comes out incredibly moist and full of flavor. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This chicken marinade is an easy way to infuse flavor into grilled chicken this summer. It's savory with a touch of tang from the red wine vinegar and lemon juice. We let our chicken marinate overnight. Once grilled, it was very tender and juicy with good flavor. This can be used for any cut of chicken you plan to grill this summer.
