October 12, 2010 Herb-Lemon Marinade for Chicken Kebabs

This is modified from Cook's Illustrated:

Makes enough for 2 pounds of chicken.  

3	tbs. olive oil (I always use EVOO)
1	tbs. minced fresh herbs , such as tarragon, chives, basil, or parsley
1	tbs. lemon juice
3	med. garlic cloves , minced or pressed through garlic press (about 1 tbs.)
1	tsp. sugar
1 1/2	tsp. salt
1/2	tsp. ground black pepper

Instructions

Whisk together ingredients in medium bowl. Place marinade and chicken in gallon-sized zipper-lock bag; press out as much air as possible and seal bag. Flip bag halfway through to ensure that chicken marinates evenly.
