I finally had a chance to make this tonight for an early dinner. Great recipe, Sparrow. Added a pic. Mine came out fairly dark. Maybe due to marinading overnight?? Couldnt find the white Worcestershire so I did as Frankie did and added wine to the regular stuff. I loved this. Thanks again for sharing

I used this marinade last night and it was really good! We had another couple over and everyone was raving about how moist it was. I also used regular Worcestershire and was able to get 6 b/s breasts marinated, probably could have fit another 1-2. I marinated for about 2 hours & cooked on my indoor grill. Sorry no pic this time. Thanks for sharing!

This had a great flavor to it, especially for chicken without skin. I used thighs and marinated for 3 hours. Mine cooked quickly - 50 minutes. I didn't have white wine Worcestershire so I used 2 Tbs of white wine and 2 Tbs of Worcestershire. Added my picture, too! A bit more in Chuckie's IMI thread.

Wow! We really enjoyed this recipe Lori. It is jam-packed full of flavour and is a nice change from my regular stand by BBQ chicken recipes. It was easy and super yummy and I am adding it to my regular rotation. Thanks so much!
