Lime, orange and garlic marinade for chicken

Serves:

Ingredients

• 2 cups orange juice
• juice of 1 lime
• ¼ cup honey, warmed
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon pepper
• ¼ cup tarragon, chopped
• 1 sprig rosemary, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped

Method

Whisk all ingredients together.

Ensure the marinade is completely cool before pouring over the chicken.

Marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Notes:

• This makes any cut of chicken tasty. The citrus tenderizes the meat while the oil makes it extremely juicy.
• This is a wonderful marinade for a charcoal barbecue – I am an avid believer that when it comes to barbecues, charcoal is best!
• This marinade would is amazing on a whole butterflied barbecued chicken.
