Tangy asian bbq sauce & marinade


Makes 2 cups marinade or 1.5 cups sauce

Marinade
1/2 cup soy sauce
6 oz pineapple juice
2 tangerines or Clementine's - juiced
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 pinch pepper
3 cloves garlic - chopped
1 small shallot - thinly sliced
1 large green onion - chopped in 1/4 inch rounds

BBQ Sauce
2 Tbsp cold water
1 Tsp corn starch

To make bbq sauce bring all marinade ingredients to a boil. Combine corn starch and water and pour mixture into boiling sauce. Reduce heat to low and whisk until sauce thickens. Strain and use as a bbq sauce or dipping sauce.

This recipe is a great marinade for chicken or pork and a terrific sauce for bbq chicken or as a glaze on pork tenderloin. I will be making pork tenderloin in the marinade and then topped with the reduced glaze.





As a sauce!
