Curry Marinade for Chicken
This Curry Marinade for Chicken made with "honey" is a dish that my Mother In Law used to make. She used to have us over for dinner every Wednesday night and would always ask me what I wanted. This was hands down my favorite dish she made and I would ask for it every time! She used honey which you can do but to keep this version Whole30 I used dates to add the honey like flavor. The chicken is juicy and the skin is crispy and delicious.
