A Blend of Flavors

An often-overlooked cooking technique, marinating chicken or beef not only introduces new flavors to occasionally uninteresting ingredients, but naturally tenderizes the meat. Chicken blooms from a stay in lemon and garlic, while the trio of coriander, cumin and peppers perfects the taste by adding a Creole touch. Serve as shown in a pita, over pasta, or cooled down with slaw and a touch of salsa. Remember to marinate in the refrigerator, and discard used marinade instead of reusing.
