Directions
Steep the tea bags in hot water for about five minutes. Once the tea is ready, take out the bags and toss them. While the tea is still warm, whisk in the saffron, sugar, lemon juice, rum extract, cayenne pepper, ginger, clove, coriander, salt, and tarragon until the sugar completely dissolves. Let the mixture cool down to room temperature before using it. If you’re not using the marinade right away, pop it in the fridge to keep it fresh. When you’re ready, soak chicken, pork, or your favorite meat in the marinade and let it chill in the fridge overnight for the best flavor.
Simple Serving Suggestions
This marinade pairs wonderfully with grilled chicken, seafood, or roasted vegetables. Serve your dish alongside a fresh salad or fluffy couscous to complement the rich flavors. A squeeze of lemon just before serving brightens the overall taste.
How To Freeze This Dish
Store any leftover marinade in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Give it a quick stir before using again, and always discard if it develops an off smell or appearance. Avoid freezing, as it may affect the texture and flavor.
