Grilled Chicken With Papaya BBQ Sauce image

It's June so fire up that BBQ and get busy. With this recipe you'll enjoy the flavors of tropical fruit and citrus along with some heat on your chicken. I strongly suspect that the seasoned rice wine vinegar could be replaced with white wine vinegar. Time does not include marinading time.

1/4 cup canned coconut cream, skimmed from the top of the can* (See Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more as needed
1/4 cup Papaya BBQ Sauce, recipe follows
1/4 cup Spiced Cashew Nuts, coarsely chopped, recipe follows

  • For the marinade: In a bowl, combine the papaya seeds, garlic, lime zest, lime juice, lemon zest, lemon juice, coconut cream, cilantro, and ginger, and mix thoroughly.

Baste each chicken breast with 2 tablespoons Papaya BBQ Sauce, and continue grilling, turning once and basting occasionally with the remaining sauce, until the meat is cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and garnish the chicken with the chopped Spiced Cashew Nuts and cilantro leaves, if using.
  • Heat the oil in a pot over medium heat, and add in the onion. Cook, until the onions are translucent, stirring continuously to ensure the pieces do not brown. Sprinkle the sugar, scotch bonnet, lime zest, and lemon zest over the onions, and stir until the sugar dissolves. Pour in the lime juice, lemon juice, water and vinegar. Bring the ingredients to a boil. Add in the diced papaya, and adjust the seasonings with the salt, if desired. Bring the mixture to a boil again, reduce the heat, and allow the mixture to simmer for 15 minutes. Take the pan off the heat, and let the mixture cool slightly. Carefully transfer the mixture to a blender, and puree the sauce until smooth. Transfer the BBQ sauce to a bowl, and set aside.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 chicken breast halves
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/3 cup Classic Barbecue Sauce

Steps:

  • Heat grill to medium-high. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Clean and lightly oil hot grates. Place chicken on grill (if using skin-on chicken, place skin side down on grill).
  • Grill chicken, without turning, 6 to 10 minutes for boneless chicken and 10 to 14 minutes for bone-in. Flip and grill until cooked through, or a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of meat (avoiding bone) registers 160 degrees, 8 to 10 minutes more.
  • About 1 minute before chicken is done, brush with barbecue sauce.

Categories     BBQ & Grilled Chicken

Time 4h35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 cups sweet barbeque sauce
1 cup Italian salad dressing
4 (8 ounce) bone-in chicken legs with skin
hickory wood chips as needed

Steps:

  • Mix barbecue sauce and salad dressing together.
  • Put chicken legs in a large zip-top bag and pour sauce all over them. Squeeze out the excess air and seal the bag. Massage marinade into the chicken a bit, then refrigerate for 4 hours.
  • Remove chicken from the refrigerator; set bag on the counter and bring to room temperature, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-low heat and lightly oil the grate. Load a smoker box with wood chips and set on the grate.
  • Remove chicken from the bag and transfer to the preheated grill. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, then flip, basting both sides with the remaining marinade.
  • Continue to cook (with the lid closed and listening for flare-ups) until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 10 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Remove chicken to a platter and tent with foil. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Categories     Sauce     Chicken     Side     Marinate     Roast     Papaya

Yield makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

FOR JERK MARINADE
3 green onions, chopped
4 large garlic cloves, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
4 to 5 fresh Scotch bonnet or habanero chiles, stemmed and seeded
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons ground allspice
2 teaspoons black pepper
3/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
FOR CHICKEN
4 chicken breast halves with skin and bones (3 pounds), halved crosswise
2 1/2 to 3 pounds chicken thighs and drumsticks
Papaya Salsa (recipe follows)
Special equipment: Gas or charcoal grill (optional)

Steps:

  • MAKE MARINADE
  • Blend all marinade ingredients in a blender until smooth.
  • MARINATE AND GRILL CHICKEN
  • Divide the chicken pieces and marinade in 2 sealable plastic bags. Seal the bags, pressing out excess air, then turn bags over several times to distribute marinade. Put bags of chicken in a shallow pan and marinate, chilled, turning once or twice, for 1 day.
  • Let chicken stand at room temperature 1 hour before cooking.
  • COOK CHICKEN USING CHARCOAL GRILL
  • Open the vents on the bottom of the grill and on the lid. Light a large chimney of charcoal briquettes (about 100) and pour them evenly over one side of a bottom rack (you will have a double or triple layer of charcoal).
  • When the charcoal turns grayish white and you can hold your hand 5 inches above the rack for 3 to 4 seconds, sear the chicken in batches on a lightly oiled rack over the coals until well browned on all sides, about 3 minutes per batch. Move the chicken as seared to the side of the grill with no coals underneath, then cook, covered with the lid, until cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes more.
  • Serve the chicken with the papaya salsa.
  • COOK CHICKEN USING GAS GRILL
  • Preheat the burners on high, then adjust heat to moderate. Cook chicken until well browned on all sides, 15 to 20 minutes. Adjust the heat to low and cook chicken, covered with lid, until cooked through, about 25 minutes more.
  • Serve the chicken with papaya salsa.
  • COOK CHICKEN USING AN OVEN
  • If you can't grill, you can roast the chicken in two large shallow (1-inch-deep) baking pans in the upper and lower thirds of a 400°F oven, switching the position of the pans halfway through the roasting, 40 to 45 minutes total.
