Finger-Licking Chicken Marinade

A wonderful marinade for chicken. If you don't have Miracle Whip, mayonnaise may be substituted. I usually marinate chicken in the marinade at least 30 minutes before cooking. However, I once took chicken sitting in the marinade to a cook-out, and other people there who had brought their own chicken started dipping their chicken in my left-over marinade to coat, then barbecuing right away without waiting for it to marinate. It was still delicious! I've found I can coat over a dozen chicken pieces with a single recipe of the marinade. These days I make this without the Tbs of salt when making it just for myself, but people's tolerance for low salt varies widely and so I've posted it the way I've found suits most people best. I'd say be guided by your own tastes when it comes to amount of salt used.

this was awesome! I didn't have regular vinegar, so I used apple cider vinegar. I was also out of worcestershire sauce so I made my own (I was very surprised how easy that was btw). marinated the chicken for 3 hours in the fridge. I baked 3 chicken thighs for an hour, basting every 15 minutes or so. The chicken was so moist and juicy...wow!

    This is a nice chicken marinade,not too overpowering.I made some alterations because I was only using 2 chicken breasts.I did not use the full 1 cup of oil only about 4 tbsp.For the rest of the ingredients I halved each amount.

    This stuff is wonderful! I used this to marinate chicken thighs, which I baked in the oven. I used fresh garlic and salt because I didn't have any garlic salt. Absolutely delicious!
