This is my daughter, Ursula's favorite chicken recipe. Everyone loves it, I bring it to BBQs a lot.
You may want to wear gloves when putting the chicken on skewers, it will dye your fingers yellow :) Turmeric is a health-enhancing spice, enjoy it!
I double the recipe for a 2 lb bag of chicken tenders or breasts, if you cut the breasts into strips or chunks and marinate them you get more flavor per piece of chicken because you have more surface area, lol.
The marinade is also good on shrimp and pork, and even cut up veggies like zucchini and mushrooms ;)
3 tbsp oil (I don't usually double the oil)
2 tbsp soy sauce (use low sodium if desired)
3 tbsp minced ginger (in MN the grocery store had jars of minced ginger, here I can't find it so I run ginger root through the food processor)
2 tbsp minced garlic
2 tbsp sugar (you can use splenda but the sugar is minimal and it kind of caramelizes..mm)
2 tsp ground turmeric (the magical fluorescent spice, also supposed to have anti-cancer properties)
1 tsp 5-spice powder
1/2 tbsp sea salt
Mix all ingredients together, place chicken in ziploc bag or container, pour marinade over, zip up, squish around to distribute and marinate 4 hours - overnight in fridge. grill. Yummmmmmmm
