Chicken marinade with soy sauce- one of the most common in the world. Any type of marinade prepared on the basis of soy sauce can transform fairly dry, bland chicken meat without a distinct smell or aroma into delicious and tender meat with a delicious taste.
Recipes for marinades with soy sauce can be divided into several types - salty and spicy marinades, sweet marinades and spicy ones. It all depends on the quality of the selected ingredients in a particular marinade. Hot chili peppers, honey, garlic, mustard, balsamic vinegar, mayonnaise, ketchup, and, of course, all kinds of spices are widely used in the preparation of such marinades.
Lately I have tried many recipes for marinades with soy sauce. Of all of them, I like it best chicken marinade with soy sauce and honey. Marinated chicken in this marinade turns out very tender, spicy and piquant.
The meat just melts in your mouth. This soy marinade, like any other types, is suitable for baking chicken in the oven and on the grill. Outdoors, you can cook chicken shish kebab in this marinade or bake legs and wings like a barbecue on a grill.
Ingredients:
- Soy sauce – 100 ml.,
- Garlic – 2 heads,
- Mayonnaise – 100 ml.,
- Spices: paprika, chicken seasoning mixture - to taste,
- Tomato sauce – 3 tbsp. spoons,
- Natural honey – 1 tbsp. spoon,
- Salt to taste
Chicken marinade with soy sauce - recipe
Pour soy sauce into a bowl.
Pass the peeled garlic cloves through a garlic press into a bowl of soy sauce.
Add mayonnaise.
Add spices to taste. I have a chicken and meat seasoning mixture consisting of black pepper, curry, dried basil, thyme, coriander, ginger, turmeric.
The marinade for chicken with soy sauce, to give it not only flavor, but also color, will be prepared with the addition of tomato sauce, and the sauce can be used either store-bought or homemade. Instead of sauce, you can use ketchup or tomato paste.
The soy sauce-based marinade for baking chicken in the oven is almost ready. Mix all its ingredients.
Add honey. It simply combines perfectly with these components of the sauce, giving the sauce a light honey aroma and sweetish notes.
Move the honey around in the marinade. After this, taste the chicken marinade with soy sauce. If you find its taste quite salty, because the soy sauce used to prepare the marinade is quite salty, then do not add additional salt to the sauce. If you like salty dishes, then add salt based on your taste. Stir the marinade. Now it can be considered ready. The color of the marinade turned out to be a beautiful dark orange color. Looking at the marinade, I decided to add even more color to it and added dried paprika.
Then I mixed the marinade again.
Prepare the chicken for marinating. To do this, the chicken carcass or any of its other parts - legs, backs, thighs, etc. should be washed and wiped dry.
In this recipe, I marinated chicken legs in soy marinade. I cut the chicken legs into two parts - I got thighs and drumsticks. Place the chicken in a bowl and then pour the soy marinade over it. Using your hands, toss the chicken in the marinade until each piece of chicken is completely coated with the marinade. Cover the bowl with a lid or cover with cling film.
Place the chicken in the soy marinade in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. Once the chicken is marinated, you can start frying it. Heat the oven to 180C. Place marinated chicken on a baking sheet.
This dish can truly be called special, because it surprisingly easily combines excellent taste, simplicity and high speed of preparation. Chicken in soy sauce in the oven will be a wonderful treat for dinner, a hearty appetizer for the holiday table, and simply that dish that you will want to cook again and again.
If you stock up on a couple of recipes for its preparation, you will definitely never lose face, because it will become your signature dish for all occasions.

How to stew chicken marinated in soy sauce
First we suggest you try the classic recipe for marinated chicken baked in the oven. The total cooking time for this recipe is 1 hour 20 minutes. To slightly diversify the taste of chicken legs, we will season them with a small amount of spices.
There are special requirements for spices (they will be discussed in the article a little later), so absolutely any will not be suitable for cooking. So that you don’t have to guess how and what to add, we advise you to immediately pay attention to the combination of aromatic garlic and ground black pepper.
How to marinate chicken in soy sauce
- Cut the hams into 2 parts, place them in a deep container with soy sauce, sprinkle the chicken with chopped garlic and ground pepper.
There is no need to add salt, since the sauce itself is already quite salty.
- Marinate the chicken in soy sauce for 15-20 minutes.
Stew chicken in soy sauce in the oven
- Next, place the pickled hams in a fireproof dish, cover it with foil and place in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 50 minutes.
- 10 minutes before the end of cooking, remove the foil so that our chicken can brown and acquire an appetizing crispy crust.
That's it - marinated chicken in soy sauce, baked in the oven, ready. Serve it hot with any side dish (stewed, boiled, fried potatoes; boiled rice; fresh salad, vegetables, etc.).
Chicken stewed in soy sauce: recipe with potatoes
Whole chicken in the oven in soy sauce, cooked with potatoes, is a treat no less refined and tasty than a single baked chicken fillet or ham. The advantage of this preparation is the fact that the side dish for the chicken is prepared at the same time as it.
To diversify the taste of the dish, we will add honey to the soy sauce, thereby making one of the saltiest sauces in the world a little sweeter. In a word, be sure to try this recipe; you won’t regret the effort expended.
Ingredients
- Chicken (whole carcass) – 1 piece;
- Soy sauce – 1 tbsp;
- Potatoes – 4-5 pcs.;
- Salt - to taste;
- Honey – 1 tsp;
- Ground black pepper - to taste.
How to stew chicken in soy sauce with potatoes
Marinate the bird in soy sauce
- We rinse the carcass under running cold water.
- Cut it in half with a sharp knife in the center of the sternum. Rub the chicken on all sides with ground pepper and salt.
- Mix honey with soy sauce, mix everything thoroughly to obtain a homogeneous mass.
- Rub the resulting mixture over the chicken carcass again on all sides. Thanks to this, when baked, the chicken will be covered with a golden-brown crust and will not lose its juiciness.
Bake marinated chicken in its own juices
- Place the bird on a baking sheet with its back facing up.
- Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut each potato in half and rub the halves (at the cut site) with salt.
- Place salted potato halves (cut side down) on a baking sheet right around the chicken.
- Lubricate the top of the potatoes with vegetable oil, this will prevent them from “drying out” when stewing.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees, place a baking sheet with the future hot snack in it for 50-60 minutes.
During the cooking process, the chicken will release aromatic juice, which can be used to baste the meat while the stew lasts. This will result in an even more browned and appetizing bird.
10. When you see that the potatoes have softened, check to see if the chicken is still ready. It’s easy to check the readiness of the dish, and you can do this with a knife: pierce the place that is located directly behind the wing; if the meat does not bleed, it means it’s ready. It is very important not to overcook the chicken in the oven, otherwise it will become “dry”.
Before serving, cut the chicken baked in soy sauce into portions and serve them together with baked potatoes on the table. It is not necessary to serve any additional ingredients; the appetizer is completely self-sufficient. Extra foods and additives will only spoil its taste.
The only thing that wouldn’t hurt is a little finely chopped garlic or herbs, but it’s not necessary to add them.
Should you add spices to chicken?
Many chefs argue - are spices really necessary for chicken baked in salty sauce? As a rule, when cooking meat, 1-2 spices are always used, or even a mixture of spices.
- However, for chicken stewed in sauce, it is better not to use ingredients with a pronounced spicy taste (especially if the recipe includes the addition of honey).
“Strong” spices (such as ginger, curry, saffron, “herbs de Provence”) interrupt the delicate taste of baked tender chicken.
- Therefore, if you want to embellish the taste of your treat a little, then take lemon juice, garlic, ground black pepper or any other spices for cooking, the taste and smell of which do not interrupt, but subtly emphasize the main taste of the dish.
Using simple but effective tips and recipes, you can always quickly prepare a miracle dish called “chicken in soy sauce in the oven.” Incredible taste, intoxicating aroma and crispy crust - this is what will not allow you and your tasters to forget about the treat for a very long time.
