Best 9 Felicitys Garlicky Grilled Chicken Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH GARLIC-HERB DRESSING AND GRILLED LEMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut a piece of aluminium foil about 12 inches long.
• Put the garlic on 1/2 of the foil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, drizzle in some olive oil, and add 2 sprigs of thyme. Fold the foil enclosing the garlic, making a pouch, and add a couple teaspoons of water. Fold the foil over the garlic to enclose and fold in the edges 2 or 3 times to seal. Put the package in the oven and roast for 30 minutes, or longer, until the garlic is soft. Open the package and let the garlic cool a bit, then squeeze out the cloves into a food processor or blender. Add 1/2 cup olive oil, the lemon juice, parsley, and thyme leaves and puree to make a thick vinaigrette.
• Preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal grill to medium heat.
• Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Put the pieces in a bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and drizzle with olive oil; toss to coat with the seasonings and then refrigerate while you get everything else together.
• Put the radicchio in another bowl, drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss; set aside.
• When you're ready to cook, take a few paper towels and fold them several times to make a thick square. Blot a small amount of oil on the paper towel and carefully and quickly wipe the hot grates of the grill to make a nonstick surface.
• Season with salt and pepper and place the radicchio quarters on the preheated grill. Cook the radicchio for about 2 minutes per side until it has a nice char; pull it off the grill, place into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside to steam and finish cooking.
• Then put the chicken on the grill, skin side down, and grill. Grill the chicken for about 20 minutes, turning once, then baste with about half of the vinaigrette and keep cooking until an instant-read thermometer stuck into the thickest part of the thigh reads 160 degrees F and the chicken is nice and caramelised all over, 15 to 20 more minutes. During the last few minutes, throw the lemon halves on the grill, cut sides down, and cook until just marked and smoky.
• To serve, separate the radicchio into individual leaves in a big bowl. Add the chicken and the rest of the dressing and toss well. Serve with grilled lemon halves, squeeze the lemon over the chicken, and top with reserved dressing.

GRILLED GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place the chicken pieces in 1 or 2 large re-sealable plastic bags and add the rest of the ingredients. Seal the bag and shake to mix. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Heat grill to medium heat, or until the coals are lightly covered with ash. Oil the grill.
• Cook the chicken, skin side up, for 20 minutes. Turn the pieces and cook an additional 15 to 20 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted reaches 155 degrees and the chicken is fork-tender and the juices run clear when a thigh is pricked with a fork. (It should measure 180 degrees F on an instant read thermometer). Alternately, roast the chicken in a preheated 400 degree F oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
• Serve 1 bird hot and reserve the other for Days 2 and 3.
• Brush the vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place everything on the grill over medium heat and cook, turning frequently, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until fork tender. Serve hot, reserving 1/3 of the vegetables for Day 2 and two ears of corn for Day 3.

GARLIC-AND-ROSEMARY GRILLED CHICKEN WITH SCALLIONS

Steps:

• Prepare grill for medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Place rosemary, garlic, and 1 bunch of scallions in a layer on grill.
• Place chicken, skin side up, on top of aromatics. Cover grill and cook until chicken is nearly cooked through, 35-40 minutes (aromatics will be thoroughly charred).
• Brush chicken with 1 tablespoon oil and place skin side down, directly onto grates (you can discard aromatics at this point). Grill until chicken is cooked through and skin is crisp, 10-15 minutes longer. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before cutting into pieces.
• Meanwhile, toss remaining bunch of scallions with remaining 1 tablespoon oil on a rimmed baking sheet and grill until tender and lightly charred, about 5 minutes.
• Serve chicken with grilled scallions alongside, topped with onion blossoms, if desired.

FELICITY'S GARLICKY GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Trim chicken as desired, cut a couple of diagonal slashes in each piece and set aside.
• Add all other ingredients, except oil and butter to food processor and blend to a paste.
• With motor running, drizzle in oil until the mixture is a pale green.
• I used about ¼ cup, but this can vary to taste.
• Cover the chicken with marinade and refrigerate for as long as possible, 3-24 hours.
• Melt butter in pan (if using) and turn the heat down.
• Place chicken breasts in pan with all the marinade and cover.
• The meat I used was very thick, but if your chicken breasts are thinner it may be possible to skip this step and just fry or grill more quickly over a higher heat.
• After about 10 minutes the steam has helped cooked through the chicken.
• Remove lid, increase heat (med-high) and brown chicken on both sides.
• I served this with a side of steamed spinach and “Felicity’s Stuffed Red Peppers”, also here on ‘Zaar.
• I had some leftovers, cold for lunch, and they were delicious, the garlic flavour had intensified& the meat was moist.

BESSY'S ZESTY GRILLED GARLIC-HERB CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place chicken in a shallow dish. In a medium bowl, mix together the olive oil, sugar, honey, saffron, garlic, basil, thyme, cayenne pepper, salt, oregano, parsley, and sage. Pour the mixture over the chicken. Cover, and marinate 20 to 25 minutes in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the grill for medium heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Discard marinade, and place chicken on the grill. Cook for 10 minutes on each side, or until exterior is charred and juices run clear.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH GARLIC AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Preheat a gas, charcoal or electric grill until moderately hot. Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil, add garlic and boil 1 minute. Drain. Cut garlic into paper-thin slices and toss in a small bowl with the parsley and a little salt and pepper.
• Stuff about 1 teaspoon of the garlic mixture under the skin of each chicken half, in breast and thigh areas. Put chickens on a plate, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use. Reserve remaining garlic mixture.
• When ready to cook, grill chicken halves 7 to 10 minutes on each side, until they are just cooked through. Make sure all pinkness disappears but do not overcook.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a saute pan. Add remaining garlic mixture and saute gently until barely golden. Remove from heat. Add lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Put a chicken half on each of 4 warmed plates and spoon the sauteed garlic mixture over each. Serve at once.

FELICITY'S CHICKEN STUFFED RED BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Cut the top off the peppers and remove the insides.
• Chop onion, carrot, celery and garlic very finely.
• (I use a food processor) Cook vegetables in butter until soft.
• Combine vegetables, rice, chicken and cheese.
• Season to taste.
• Fill peppers with this mixture, pressing down as you go to ensure they are well stuffed.
• Place peppers in a covered casserole and cook in a 180c oven until peppers are soft, approximately 60-90minutes.
• To speed the cooking process, microwave the peppers for a couple of minutes before filling.
• Once they are soft, sprinkle with additional cheese and broil until tops are golden.
• Serve hot or warm as a side dish, appetiser or light lunch.

GRILLED GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Wash and dry chicken breasts.
• Wash and dry herbs, and measure out 1 tablespoon of each; finely chop garlic.
• Mix herbs, garlic and oil together in small bowl, and season with pepper.
• Dip the chicken breasts in the mixture, coating well on both sides.
• When it is time to cook the chicken, prepare stove-top grill and cook the chicken on both sides until it is well browned and cooked through, turning once or twice, about 10 minutes.

FORTY GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Put in chicken, boil until meat falls away at the bone. Pull out as many bones and as much skin as you like.
• Stir in the vermouth, garlic cloves (don't peel - you will use them for the bread), parsley and chicken stock. Reduce heat to low and let simmer and reduce for about 2 hours. Serve hot with slices of bread. Take the soft garlic and spread on fresh bread as 'garlic butter'. Yum!
