Beer Marinated Chicken with Gorgonzola Sauce Recipe

August 18, 2022 Litehouse
20 minutes
Serves: 4-6

The weather is finally BBQ-perfect, and that means we can finally start using our grills. I'm talking about juicy Beer Marinated Chicken with Gorgonzola Sauce. To make this dish extra flavorful, I mixed some lovely caramel Alaskan Amber, an alt-style ale with a bit of honey, Worcestershire sauce, and smoky chipotle pepper. I also used Litehouse Simply Artisan Gorgonzola Crumbles to make the sauce. This cheese is aged for 100 days to ensure its award-winning signature flavor has enough time to develop. It is a real flavor bomb! The combination of sweet, smoky, and spicy goes excellent with the creamy and slightly tangy Gorgonzola sauce, and the crisp, cool Alaskan beer pairs perfectly with Litehouse Simply Artisan Crumbles. Happy grilling!
