This sugar-free marinade is for those looking to kick it up a notch with zest and flavor! Not only is it good with chicken, but also pairs well with fish. Prepare and marinade the chicken an hour in advance or overnight in the fridge. Bring this to the next barbecue and watch the magic happen once it comes off the grill!

How to Make Sweet and Savory Chicken Marinade
1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, mustard, Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener, coconut aminos, garlic, thyme, oregano and rosemary; salt and pepper. Reserve 1/4 cup and set aside.
2. In a gallon size Ziploc bag, combine balsamic vinegar mixture and chicken; marinate for at least 1 hour to overnight, turning the bag occasionally. Drain the chicken from the marinade.
3. Preheat grill to medium high heat. Add chicken to grill and cook, flipping once and basting with reserved 1/4 cup marinade until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes on each side
4. Serve immediately, garnish with parsley, if desired.
