marinated chicken
Flavor-infused bird meat
Marinated chicken is chicken that has been soaked in a seasoned liquid—typically containing acid, oil, and aromatics—to tenderize the meat and infuse flavor before cooking.
The term appears on menus and in recipes as a descriptor: grilled marinated chicken, marinated chicken thighs.
The marinade varies widely by cuisine, from yogurt-based for Indian dishes to citrus for Latin American preparations.
