Description
A flavorful chicken dish marinated in beer, garlic, and spices, then grilled to perfection and glistened with a savory glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- Chicken (breast or thighs)
- 1 cup Beer (lager or stout)
- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 Onion (sliced)
- 2 tbsp Honey or Brown Sugar
- 2 tbsp Mustard
- 2 tsp Fresh Thyme or Rosemary
- Salt and Black Pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix beer, minced garlic, sliced onion, honey, and mustard. Marinate the chicken for at least one hour, preferably overnight.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (or oven to 375°F).
- Remove chicken from marinade, letting excess drip off, and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden and cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Strain the leftover marinade in a pot, boil, then simmer until reduced to a glaze consistency. Drizzle over cooked chicken.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
For a vegetarian option, substitute chicken with tofu or tempeh. Use non-alcoholic beer for a lighter version.
