Steps:
- In a medium bowl, mix together all of the ingredients except for the chicken and scallions. Set ¼ cup of the marinade aside and cover (you'll use this later for the sauce), then place the rest in a zip-lock freezer bag with the chicken thighs. Be sure the chicken is evenly coated with the marinade, then place the bag in the refrigerator (in a bowl in case of leakage); let marinate for 3-4 hours.
- Preheat grill to high heat.
- Grease the grill. (Lightly dip a wad of paper towels in vegetable oil; then, using tongs, carefully rub the towels over the grates several times until glossy and coated.) Place the chicken on the grill; cover and cook 3-5 minutes on each side, or until nicely browned and done. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter, then top with the reserved marinade and sliced scallions.

OVEN-BARBECUED ASIAN CHICKEN
From EatingWell,com: November/December 2011, Eating Well One-Pot Meals -- This Asian barbecued chicken made in a casserole dish is truly finger-licking good! You can make this with 2 bone-in chicken breasts (about 12 ounces each) instead of thighs and drumsticks, if you prefer. Remove the skin (if desired) and cut each chicken breast in half on the diagonal to get 4 portions about equal in weight.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F Coat a 9-by-13-inch (or similar-size) baking dish with cooking spray.
- Thinly slice 1/4 cup scallion greens; set aside.
- Mince the scallion whites. Whisk the scallion whites, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, hot sauce, five-spice powder, and honey (OPTIONAL) in a large bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Arrange the chicken in an even layer in the prepared baking dish, meatier-side down. Pour any remaining sauce from the bowl over the chicken.
- Bake, turning once halfway so the meatier side is up, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part without touching bone registers 165°F, about 1 hour.
- Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and top with any remaining sauce from the baking dish.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and the reserved scallion greens.
- TIPS:.
- Chinese five-spice powder is a blend of cinnamon, cloves, fennel seed, star anise and Szechuan peppercorns. Look for it in the spice section of the supermarket, or with other Asian ingredients.
- Sesame seeds can be toasted in a small dry skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until golden and fragrant, about 2 minutes.

Steps:

- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add 3 teaspoons ginger, the garlic and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder and cook 2 minutes. Add the hoisin sauce, 1 tablespoon vinegar and 3 teaspoons honey; cook 1 minute. Remove from the heat and add 1 teaspoon sesame oil.
- Toss the cucumbers with the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon honey, 1/4 teaspoon each sesame oil and ginger, and salt to taste. Top the chicken with the sauce. Serve with the cucumbers.

CHINESE BARBECUED CHICKEN
This is a terrific recipe that I found, and tweaked successfully, in Ken Hom's Quick and Easy Chinese Cooking. The original has double the amount of sesame oil but I feel a little of that goes a long way...double it if you wish. This can be served hot or cold. It's delicious! Prep time does not include 1 hour marinating time.

Steps:
- Cut the chicken into quarters and rub each piece evenly with the salt.
- Combine the rest of the ingredients in a blender or food processor and puree them.
- Place the chicken in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over.
- Squish around good so the marinade is evenly coating the chicken.
- Set aside to marinate at least 1 hour at room temperature, or refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat broiler, light a fire in an open gril or turn on your gas grill.
- When your chosen cooking method is hot, place the chicken on the grill and cook, over indirect heat, for about 45 minutes turning occasionally, or until meat is no longer pink near the joints.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Use a whole chicken or chicken pieces that are bone-in and skin-on. This will help the chicken stay moist and flavorful during cooking.
- Make sure the chicken is properly thawed: If the chicken is frozen, thaw it completely in the refrigerator or in a cold water bath before cooking.
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what will give the chicken its flavor, so make sure to use a marinade that you like. You can find many different marinade recipes online or in cookbooks.
- Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes: The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be. If you don't have time to marinate the chicken for 30 minutes, you can marinate it for as little as 15 minutes.
- Cook the chicken over indirect heat: This will help the chicken cook evenly and prevent it from drying out.
- Baste the chicken with the marinade or sauce during cooking: This will help keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and juicy.
Conclusion:
Asian baked BBQ chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and savory flavor, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a new chicken recipe, give Asian baked BBQ chicken a try.
