Main Course Recipes : Cornell Barbeque Chicken
2007-11-14 14:20:00
Ingredients :2 cups vinegar1 cup vegetable oil1 egg3 tablespoons salt1 tablespoon poultry seasoningPepper to taste6 to 8 Chicken Breasts (not boneless)Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. Marinade chicken in sauce for at least 1 - 2 hours (we allowed the chicken to marinate overnight). Cook chicken over charcoal grill until done. Baste often while cooking. Chef's Note: I basted the chicken almost continuously during the cooking process. The recipe makes plenty of marinade so be generous with your basting. I would cook the chicken for a few minutes after the last dose of basting, however, since there is raw egg in the marinade. By the way, the Cornell Chicken was wonderful!!Tips : Even though you can cut out some fat and calories by removing the skin from the chicken before cooking, this marinade causes the skin to become nice and crunchy and very tasty. I will leave the "skin-off vs. skin-on" option up to you. Eggplant SteaksIngredients :1 - 3 cloves garlic, f...
