Chicken and Marinade
1
Place the brown sugar, soy sauce, sake or sherry, onion juice, cayenne and garlic in a Food Saver marinade container - or - in a large resealable plastic bag and stir to combine. Add chicken and marinate for 2 cycles or seal bag pushing out air and mix well and marinate for 4-6 hours.
