I love using the other worcestershire by lea & perrins. What was originally their white wine worcestershire but is now called chicken marinade and found with the other marinades in the grocery store. Although i found this on the internet there just aren't enough recipes on here using the great white worcestershire. so I wanted to share my find. It is a little involved and the longer the chicken marinates the better. But you are sure to impress with this dish at your next cookout! Just don't weat your kiss the cook apron unless you mean it!! You can use beer instead of the tequilla- but this is a southwestern dish! Or if you are afraid the alcohol content wont cook out and you are serving to children etc you can leave it out alltogether Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, melted |
4 tablespoons chopped garlic |
1/2 cup lea & perrins chicken marinade or 1/2 cup white wine worcestershire sauce |
1/2 cup olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 dash cayenne (optional) |

Directions:
1. In a medium bowl mix all marinade ingredients together.

4. while grill is heating remove chicken from bag and let warm up some. throw out the used marinade.
5. de-silk corn but leave husks attatched, soak in water for 15 minutes or until husks are saturated, drain brush corn with reserved marinade and pull husks back up and tie with butchers twine that also has been soaked in water to prevent burning right away. or make a foil packet.
6. chop the peppers and onions into large serving pieces and toss them and tomatoes with reserved marinade. place into a large foil packet.
7. place chicken and foil packets (except corn) on the grill over medium heat with lid closed about 15 minutes watch for flare ups and turn down heat if they occur. you can baste with any sauce left from the vegie toss.
