Every time I make this tender chicken, people ask for the recipe, relates Deborah DiLaura English from Casper, Wyoming. A friend of mine shared the recipe, which she got from her sister-in-law who's from the Philippines. Ingredients:
2/3 cup sugar |
2/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce |
1/2 cup lemon-lime soda |
1/2 cup lemon juice |
2 tablespoons garlic powder |
1 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
8 bone-in skinless chicken breast halves (7 ounces each) |
2 tablespoons barbecue sauce |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Pour 1-1/2 cups marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade. 2. Drain and discard marinade. Add barbecue sauce to reserved marinade. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. 3. Prepare grill for indirect heat using a drip pan. Place chicken over drip pan and grill, covered, over indirect medium heat for 35-50 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 170°, turning and basting occasionally with marinade. Before serving, brush with remaining marinade. Yield: 8 servings. |
