re: What are some good healthy chicken marinades?

NomNom Paleo, Curious Coconut, Mark's Daily Apple and Sarah Fragoso are good sources for low carb recipes.


I like this criollo mojo marinade variation on a low carb diet:

4 Tablespoons Olive oil
3 Shallots, finely chopped
8 cloves of Garlic, minced
1 Bay Leaf
1/4 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar
3 limes - juice (better if you can find sour oranges)
1/4 cup - fresh orange juice (better if you can find sour oranges)
1/4 cup - pineapple juice
1 teaspoon Chili Garlic sauce
1/2 Cup chopped Fresh Cilantro
1/2 teaspoon Ground Cumin
1/2 tblspoon Oregano
1/2 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
Salt to taste
[You can cut carbs further by taking out the pineapple and orange juice]

I also like this low carb Jerk Marinade
