I love chicken, and I know I’m not the only one. In fact, for me, the safest thing to order at a restaurant is always chicken. It rarely ever disappoints. Whether it’s fried, roasted, grilled, or stewed, chicken is delicious.

If you have time on your hands and are looking to spice up the way you eat chicken at home, this post is for you. Like anything else, it’s very hard to go wrong when you’re making chicken if you follow the recipes to the latter. Here are a few recipes that you should try out.

  1. Lemon and herb chicken

  1. Chicken cut up into pieces
  2. Salt
  3. Soy sauce
  4. 2 lemons- freshly squeezed
  5. Garlic
  6. Ginger
  7. Rosemary leaves
  8. Two tablespoons of oil

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix up your chicken, salt, soy sauce, lemon, garlic, ginger, and rosemary leaves together.
  2. Cover the bowl and put it in the refrigerator for at least four hours so that the marinade can mix well. Make sure to marinate in the fridge. Marinating at room temperature can allow dangerous bacteria to grow and lead to foodborne illnesses.
  3. Turn on your oven, and preheat it at 375 degrees
  4. Once done, place the chicken pieces on the oven pan and let it sit for approximately 45 minutes
  5. Serve hot.

For those that lean towards sweeter marinades, then the honey glazed chicken is for you. This recipe is almost addictive. It combines the sweet taste of honey, with some salt, to bring together a perfect blend of flavour.

Ingredients

  1. Chicken cut to pieces
  2. 3/4 cup honey
  3. 1/2 cup soy sauce
  4. 4 large garlic cloves, minced or finely grated
  5. 1 Tbsp ginger, peeled and finely grated

 Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients: honey, soy sauce, grated garlic cloves, and grated ginger.
  2. Place chicken pieces in your marinade and mix. Refrigerate 6 hours or overnight.
  3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  4. Arrange chicken skin-side up, so chicken pieces are not touching. Add enough of the marinade to just coat the bottom of the baking pan.
  5. Let it grill for approximately 45 minutes-1 hour
  6. Serve hot.
