You found your recipe. The secret is two things: <strong>boneless skinless chicken thighs<\/strong> (juicier, more flavorful, and way more forgiving than breasts), plus <strong>an IPA marinade with soy sauce, balsamic, brown sugar and Dijon mustard<\/strong> that coats the meat and caramelizes on the grill. This is the recipe for summer BBQs, long weekends, weeknight dinners, entertaining. It plays everywhere.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83d\udd25 Chicken thighs = the cut that forgives<\/h3>\n<p>I always go with <strong>boneless skinless chicken thighs<\/strong> for these skewers. Juicier, more flavorful, and above all way more forgiving than breasts on the grill. Breasts dry out in a heartbeat, but thighs hold their juice even if you&#8217;re distracted for 30 seconds. Served with a little <strong>drizzle of reserved fresh marinade<\/strong> at the table, you&#8217;ll lose it at how tender the chicken turns out.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83c\udf7a A versatile marinade that delivers<\/h3>\n<p>This marinade is a little masterpiece: <strong>IPA beer, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, lemon, dried herbs<\/strong>. Ingredients that fit together like they were born to. I grab the <strong>Belle Mer (Archibald)<\/strong> when I find it, otherwise any other Quebec IPA or pale ale works. Bonus: this marinade also works beautifully for <strong>pork, fish and shrimp<\/strong>. Take notes. Serve with an <a href=\"https:\/\/lecoupdegrace.ca\/en\/recipe\/orzo-salad-with-bocconcini-cheese-pesto-and-garden-veggies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">orzo salad with bocconcini and pesto<\/a>, grilled BBQ potatoes with garlic-lemon butter, or grilled rapini, and you walk away with the honors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83c\udf57 The best grilled chicken skewers: juicy thighs, marinade that delivers Looking for grilled chicken skewers that actually taste like something, come off the BBQ juicy, and get unanimous votes around the table?
