Going grilling! New marinade recipes to follow. This weekend we are going to a music festival. So, as always, turning my nose up at plain ol' rubber hotdogs and pre-pattied burgers, I am going to create a lot of extra work for myself, as well as waaaayyyy more delicious food than my lazy homies.
We have some award winning beef brats from this rambly old guy at the Farmer's Market. This last time I thought he wasn't going to be as chatty, since I watched him simply bring some meats to the customers in front of us and let them on their way, but apparently Dustin and I are friendly and talkative looking and sure enough, he babbled for several minutes before he let us escape.
Also from the Market we have:
zucchini and summer squash
bell peppers
baby potatoes
corn
I aslo have a pound of chicken breasts in the freezer that I'm planning on making a marinade for and letting it thaw all night Friday so it'll be ready by Saturday for a tasty lunch.
So I'm going to make a marinade for the chicken and another for the veggies.
Veggies: just a simple olive oil/balsamic marinade
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 TB balsamic vinagrette
2-3 cloves garlic
basil, savory, thyme
Chicken, hmm classic peanut marinade, or classic jerk marinade...tough one.
Peanut Marinade:
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/8-1/4 canola oil
3-4 TB creamy PB
1 TB miso
2 TB white wine, sake or even beer in a pinch
1/2 lime squeezed
3 clvoes garlic, pressed or minced very fine
3 slices ginger about 1/4 inch thick, minced
Mix and store in a snapple bottle to pour onto chicken once it thaws.
Or a somewhat more complicated Jerk recipe adapted from Epicurious
