1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 ½ cups brown sugar
1 ¼ cups soy sauce
½ cup sherry
5 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
5 tablespoons minced garlic
¼ cup sesame oil
¼ cup sesame seeds
3 tablespoons black bean sauce
2 ½ tablespoons coarsely ground black pepper
2 tablespoons garlic chile paste
Step 1
Combine green onions, brown sugar, soy sauce, sherry, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, sesame seeds, black bean sauce, black pepper, and garlic chile paste in a large bowl. Whisk until brown sugar is completely dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes.
This very flavorful marinade can be used for chicken pieces, beef steaks, ribs, pork ribs, or chops. It works best when you can marinate overnight!

Cook's Notes:
This recipe makes a lot of marinade! I split it in half after mixing and froze half in a resealable plastic bag for next time.
Tips
Letting your meat marinate overnight will tenderize it as well as give it a hearty flavor for grilling. However, if using boneless, skinless chicken breasts, don't marinate overnight as it would get too strong.
