BRAZILIAN BEER MARINATED CHICKEN



Brazilian Beer Marinated Chicken image

Food and Wine Magazine, June /07 issue. This is a Steve Raichlen recipe, he uses a Brazilian lager but American stouts are okay. There is a 4 hour marinating time. I found this recipe to be very intriguing because it had many different ingredients. I especially liked the caraway seeds and the sweet paprika. Can't wait to try! Update: 09/24/07 - this is very, very good! Instead of an anise flavored beer (Brazilian beer) they used an American beer. I had this at Lima's house, whe is a Brazilian nurse here at the home and she had a small get together & served this. She doesn't like the Brazilian beer either.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 garlic cloves, smashed
4 slices peeled fresh ginger, smashed (1/4-inch each)
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon caraway seed
1/2 green bell pepper, finely chopped
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 cups dark lager beer (preferably Xingu Black Beer) or 2 cups stout beer (American beer is good too)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 oz each)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
lime wedge, for serving

Steps:

  • In a shallow dish, mix the garlic, ginger, onion, paprika, salt, black pepper, caraway seeds, green pepper, mustard, beer and oil.
  • Add the chicken, cover and refrigerate for 4 hours, turning a few times.
  • Light a grill.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill over high heat until nicely browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Transfer the chicken to a platter and brush with the melted butter.
  • Scatter the cilantro over the top and serve with lime wedges.
  • Wonderful with baked potatoes and a green vegetable.
  • *Xingu Black Beer is an anise-scented, bittersweet black lager from Brazil.*.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality beer for the marinade. A dark beer will give the chicken a richer flavor, while a light beer will result in a more delicate flavor.
  • Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best. This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the chicken.
  • When grilling the chicken, cook it over medium heat and baste it with the marinade frequently. This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.

Conclusion:

Italian beer-marinated chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The marinade infuses the chicken with flavor, and the grilling process creates a crispy skin and tender interior. Whether you are serving it at a backyard barbecue or a family dinner, this dish is sure to be a hit.
