4. Korean grilled chicken marinade

1/4 cup toasted Sesame seeds
1/4 cup Sesame or Corn oil
1/4 cup Light Soy Sauce (Not "lite")
1/4 cup Dark Corn Syrup (Karo) or 3 tbslp. sugar
1 ea Small onion, sliced
1 ea Clove garlic, crushed
1/4 tsp. White Pepper
1/2 tsp. Ginger, minced

Add chicken, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate, turning once,
at least three hours or overnight. Grill over low coals, turning and basting frequently until juices run clear.

5. here's my mom's teriyaki marinade

A cup of rice vinegar, with a couple of tablespoons of soy sauce (Kikkoman is the best), and some ground ginger and garlic. (Fresh is better than powdered for both of these, but powdered will do.) I like a bit of black pepper for heat.

Sometimes she adds a spoonful of "mirin" -- if not available, some dry white wine -- but that's optional.

While the chicken cooks, I render down the leftover marinade in a saucepan, and use it as a glazing sauce. I've also added a bit of lemon juice at the end, but it's not really necessary unless you want an extra bit of zing.

6. italian salad dressing works quite well for grilling with

7. A very easy one

Bottled Italian salad dressing. Honest. It comes out very good.

Dang...someone got to this one before I did.

8. what sort of taste do you like? Spicey? Savory?

Ever try lime juice, fresh grated ginger, fresh ground pepper, fresh minced garlic? Add it to a bit of oil and a pinch of salt. It is really good with rice on the side (drizzle some of the pan drippings from basting the chicken with the stuff.

Yogurt (plain, unflavored) cumin, chilie powder, garlic

Or: Lime, cumin, fresh garlic, onion powder, fresh cliantro, pinch of mild chilie powder. MMMMMm gooood.

Go Italian with olive oil, basil, oragano, garlic, fresh pepper.

Go savory with oil, sage, parsley, thyme, rosemary, onion powder

brush with a bit of oil or melted butter and toss on some cajun spice mix.

Lemon juice, oil, lemon peel, fresh pepper pinch of salt

Think of the kitchen as a lab and yourself as the mad scientist, tie a length of rope around your waist, the other end to youe stove and anything you can grab is fair game! Cooking is an adventure.
