{Recipe} Dad's Marinade For Chicken & Tofu (or Beef)*Updated*

I've mentioned this recipe before and thought it wasn't up on the blog but I just realized I made one back in 2015.   I'm giving it a little update now.  I've always called this "Dad's Marinade" but it's actually his dad's recipe and it's actuall called-Barbecue Sauce for Chicken or Beef (and in this case, tofu).  I'm not a fan of traditional barbecue sauce and consider this more of a marinade.

Ingredients (for 2 -3 pounds of protein)

Dry Ingredients:

2 TBS flour

2 TBS sugar

1 tsp salt

Liquid Ingredients:

1 cup oil (I use avocado)

3/4 cup red wine vinegar

1/4 cup lemon juice

6 TBS total of the following sauces:( I use 2 TBS of each)

Worcestershire Sauce

Soy Sauce

A-1 Steak Sauce

2 bouillon cubes (I use No-Chicken bouillon)

1/2 tsp Tabasco

1/2 cup wine (optional)

To make:

• Warm liquid ingredients and sauces in a medium sized sauce pan
• Sift in dry ingredients
• Heat, stirring frequently until browned and thickened
• Add bouillon cubes, tabasco and wine
• If it needs extending add: {1/2 cup oil, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1/4 cup wine, 1 TBS A-1 sauce}
• Let cool before pouring over protein to marinate
• Marinate for several hours or overnight in a covered dish in the fridge
• Broil or Grill using marinade to baste

We made this recently when we had visitors and it was such a nice memory of my dad (he always used chicken thighs but we used chicken breast and tofu).

I also made my Strawberry Crunch Cake and it was just as delicious as I remembered!
