This all-purpose marinade for chicken is a great recipe to have in your repertoire. What you get is nicely seasoned chicken that is versatile enough to add to almost any salad, sandwich or pasta. It also makes grilling easy by creating a lovely non-stick exterior. The recipe is (only slightly adapted) from New South Grilling, by Robert St. John and he notes that it can be use on any poultry, even as a pre-baste and seasoning for your Thanksgiving turkey.
