Ingredients:
1 bottle Starrlight Mead Honeyed Rita
chicken breasts (or thighs)
olive oil for grilling
salt and pepper
Directions:
Marinate chicken in enough mead to cover in a zip top bag overnight in the refrigerator.
Preheat grill to medium.
Drip dry chicken on a rack, then brush with oil and salt and pepper, as desired.
Grill on medium heat until done. Chicken breasts - about 9-10 minutes, chicken thighs - 8-9 minutes, depending on size, flip halfway through. Let rest and serve.
Rita Rice
Replace a quarter of the water called for cooking rice with Honeyed Rita. For 4 servings, use 1/2 cup mead and 1 1/2 cups water for 1 cup of rice. Simmer as directed for 20 minutes. Add a couple of teaspoons of chopped parsley or cilantro, if desired.
