Kiwi Marinade for Chicken

Lyn Found this recipe and it was well worth it falling of the bone both the thighs and the breast. While the kiwi 🥝 takes care of the tenderizing, the sour cream adds an extra layer of depth and keeps the chicken juicy throughout the cooking process. The result is a perfect blend of sweet, tangy and savory flavors and the most tender, melt-in-your-mouth meat.

Kiwi Marinade for Chicken

Ingredients

  • 6 chicken thighs bone in and skin on
    •  Steve Note: (I went with 4 thighs and one breast, Lyn prefers white meat) 
  • 1 whole kiwi peeled
    • Steve Note: (I might try 2 next time) 
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream or plain yogurt
    • Steve Note: (used sour cream) 

How

  • In a food processor, puree one peeled kiwi. Open the lid and add the olive oil, seasonings and sour cream.
  • Place the chicken in a large bowl and pour the creamy marinade over it.
  • Let it sit for a minimum of 1 hour (or overnight).
  • Once marinated, preheat the oven to 425F (220C).
  • Transfer the chicken into a baking dish and cook for 45-60 minutes or until fully cooked.
  • Feel free to crisp up the skin the last 5-10 minutes on broil (top burner only) but keep a close eye on it
