Hi friends!

I’ve been meaning to share my favorite 4 ingredient chicken marinade and finally got my act together to share it with you! It really could not be any simpler. I’m not a huge meat eater and most of the meat I do eat is chicken so I’ve been searching for a while now to find a marinade that would add flavor, keep it juicy and not take forever to throw together.

Chicken Marinade Simple

For this chicken marinade 4 ingredients are needed:

Avocado oil
Red wine vinegar
Garlic
Honey

You could use a neutral oil if you don’t have avocado oil. Red wine vinegar is a key ingredient so don’t skip that! Garlic adds a subtle flavor. You could add onion as well. Honey balances the vinegar. Play around with the amount to find your desired sweetness.

Easy Chicken Marinade For The Grill

You could:

Grill it! This is our go-to cooking method in the summer. I typically use chicken breasts but this would be the perfect marinade for chicken thighs on the grill.
Use the air fryer – I recently discovered that I could use my air fryer to make chicken breasts and it’s so easy. I set mine for 400 degrees and cook 13-18 minutes depending on the thickness.
Bake it- Try cutting it into large chunks and using it in a sheet pan meal!

Here’s the marinade recipe:
