Ingredients:

Serving

4 garlic cloves, smashed
4 slices peeled fresh ginger , smashed (1/4-inch each)
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 tbsp sweet paprika
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1/2 tsp caraway seed
1/2 green bell pepper, finely chopped
1/4 cup dijon mustard
2 cups dark lager beer
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 oz each)
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
lime wedge, for serving

Directions:

In a shallow dish, mix the garlic, ginger, onion, paprika, salt, black pepper, caraway seeds, green pepper, mustard, beer and oil.
Add the chicken, cover and refrigerate for 4 hours, turning a few times.
Light a grill.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill over high heat until nicely browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.

Scatter the cilantro over the top and serve with lime wedges.
Wonderful with baked potatoes and a green vegetable.
