Chef notes

Marinating chicken in beer makes it extra tender and juicy. It also lets the bold spices and aromatics soak deep into the meat for added flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 ounces (1 can) beer
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
