I've "invented" a marinade I'm using on chicken, beef, and pork. Tenderizes, while providing an interesting flavor....
1/3 cup Teriaki sauce (Kikoman, or whatever brand you prefer, but it must contain soy sauce)
1 tsp. Ginger (I get it in the little jars, already crushed and easy to dispense)
3 Paypaya "pills" crushed to powder (I buy it in the Health Food stores, and crush with mortar & pestle)
Mix marinade in zip-lock baggie, insert meat, close and let "sit" in 'fridge for 24 hours before cooking. I use my propane grill for most meat cooking, but I have cooked it (in the juices & marinade) in the oven for an even more intense flavor....
