The marinade contains lime juice, which tenderizes the chicken. after more than a few hours though, the meat fibres canbecome so soft that the chicken literally falls apart, which means that this dish is not suitable for overnight marinating.

LIME AND CORIANDER MARINATED CHICKEN



Lime and Coriander Marinated Chicken image

We have one of those electric table-top grills which we often get out for informal parties. It means you can put out a selection of different types of meats and people can cook it the way they like it. It's sociable and fun, and easy with a couple of side dishes of salad, potatoes, pasta, rice, or whatever you fancy. I made this marinade up yesterday to jazz up the chicken breasts I had, and it was delish. Lovely and moist with a nice flavour.

LIME & CORIANDER CHICKEN



Lime & coriander chicken image

Everyone will think you've used chilli, but the fieriness of this dish is simply crushed black pepper

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Main course

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 medium chicken (about 1.6kg/3lb 8oz)
3 garlic cloves
2 tbsp black peppercorn
juice 2 limes , plus 1 lime cut into wedges, to serve
bunch of coriander , few nice sprigs reserved, the rest finely chopped

Steps:

  • First, spatchcock the chicken so that it will sit flat on the barbecue. All this means is using a pair of kitchen scissors or a sharp kitchen knife to cut down either side of the parson's nose to completely remove the backbone. Then, place the chicken, breast side up, on a chopping board and push down hard to flatten with your hands. Use a sharp knife to make lots of deep slashes in the chicken, about three in each breast and two in each leg.
  • In a mortar and pestle, crush the garlic and peppercorns together to a grey, mushy paste. Stir the lime juice into the paste, then the chopped coriander. Put the chicken in a dish and massage the marinade into the chicken. Cover with cling film and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
  • To cook the chicken, fire up the barbecue. When the flames die down and the coals are hot and glowing, lay the chicken on the barbecue, skin side up, and sprinkle with salt. You will be tempted to keep prodding it and lifting it up, but leave it alone. After 25 mins, the chicken will look like it's cooked through, but flip it over and give the skin side 10 mins to brown. Lift the chicken onto a chopping board and leave to rest for a few minutes.
  • You can now carve conventionally but I like to get a cleaver and chop it straight down into thick slices. Pile it up on a platter and serve scattered with fresh coriander and lime wedges.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are best for this recipe.
  • Make sure the chicken is well-marinated: The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be. Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you're cooking the chicken in a skillet, make sure there's enough room for the chicken to cook evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken: The chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken immediately: Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This lime and coriander marinated chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is flavorful and juicy, and the marinade adds a bright and refreshing flavor. Serve the chicken with your favorite sides for a complete and satisfying meal.
