Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 tablespoon neutral oil, such as grapeseed, plus additional for brushing
1/2 cup chopped white onion (from about 1/2 small onion)
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon paprika
2 peaches, sliced in half and pits removed
4 skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 medium sweet potato, thinly sliced
Olive oil, for drizzling
Tomato Cucumber Salad, recipe follows
Lime wedges, for serving
1 pound heirloom tomatoes, cored and chopped
1/2 medium English cucumber, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
2 tablespoons avocado oil
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
Juice of 1/2 lime
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 cups arugula

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium heat, then add the onions and caramelize, stirring occasionally, until soft and deeply golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Deglaze with the cider vinegar and reduce by about half, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk in the ketchup, soy sauce, brown sugar and paprika, then bring to a boil and let simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
  • Meanwhile, preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates, then grill the peaches, flipping once, until they get a nice dark char and are soft, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • Place the cooled onion mixture and grilled peaches in a blender. Puree until smooth.
  • Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Place chicken on the hot grill and cook for approximately 5 minutes; flip chicken and coat grilled side of chicken with the peach BBQ sauce. Allow chicken to cook for another 5 minutes, then flip again, coating with more peach BBQ sauce.
  • Cook chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, another 4 to 5 minutes on each side.
  • Meanwhile, toss the sweet potato slices in a bowl with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Grill, flipping once, until nicely charred and tender, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
  • Arrange a few slices of grilled sweet potato on a plate, then top with some Tomato Cucumber Salad and lay a chicken breast on top. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve with lime wedges.
  • Combine the tomatoes, cucumbers, onion, avocado oil, ginger, garlic, the spices and lime juice in a large bowl, then season with salt and pepper. Toss well, then toss with the arugula.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 peaches, peeled, pitted and coarsely chopped
3/4 cup peach nectar
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon molasses
1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon adobo sauce from canned chipotles in adobo
1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke
6 chicken legs, leg and thigh attached
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Peach brandy, for basting

Steps:

  • For the peach barbecue sauce: Combine the peaches, peach nectar, ketchup, molasses, vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and adobo sauce in a deep saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and the flavors have melded. Puree with an immersion blender and let cool.
  • For the BBQ chicken: Prepare a grill for indirect cooking over medium heat.
  • Rub the chicken legs with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken over indirect heat, turning occasionally, for 25 to 30 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165 degrees F. Baste the chicken periodically using a basting brush soaked in peach brandy; do not pour brandy directly over the grill. Ten to 15 minutes before the chicken is done, brush it generously with peach barbecue sauce. Just before removing the chicken from grill, brush a final time with barbecue sauce.
  • Let the chicken rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Serve with extra sauce on the side.

PEACH AND MOLASSES CHICKEN



Peach and Molasses Chicken image

The sauce here relies on store-bought jam as a shortcut to intense fruit flavor and it is amazing on chicken. This recipe, adapted from the cookbook "Watermelon and Red Birds" by Nicole Taylor, is special enough for your Juneteenth celebration, but it's so delicious, it can be cooked on a weekly rotation. Almost any fruit jam works, too, if peach isn't your thing. As for the chicken itself, so much of the fat and flavor comes from the chicken skin that removing that outer layer is tantamount to robbing the meat of most of its taste, so do what it takes to find skin-on pieces. The crispy, charred chicken edges, drenched with the sauce, only happen with skin attached.

Categories     dinner, lunch, barbecues, poultry, main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup peach jam
1/4 cup unsulfured molasses
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon coriander seeds, crushed
1 tablespoon ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
3 to 4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
1½ teaspoons kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1½ tablespoons peanut oil
1 tablespoon coriander seeds, crushed

Steps:

  • Make the sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the peach jam, molasses, vinegar and 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to combine. Once boiling, reduce the heat to maintain a vigorous simmer and whisk in the tomato paste, soy sauce, coriander, ground mustard and salt. Simmer for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened; the sauce should be reduced to about 1 cup. The sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. (Before using, bring to room temperature and thin with a few teaspoons of hot water if the sauce has become too thick to brush.)
  • Prepare the chicken: Leaving one section free of coals on a charcoal grill or leaving one burner off on a gas grill, heat a grill to medium (350 degrees). Pat the chicken thighs very dry with paper towels. Season both sides with the salt and pepper. Coat with the peanut oil.
  • Place the chicken thighs on the hot grill, skin-side down, close the grill lid and cook, moving the chicken away from any flare-ups, for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the skin lifts easily from the grill grates. Transfer a few tablespoons of the sauce to a small bowl and set aside. Flip the chicken thighs and use a heat-resistant brush to coat with some of the remaining sauce. Cover the grill again and cook for another 5 to 8 minutes, then flip and baste with the sauce again. Grill with the lid open for another 10 minutes, or until the thighs reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. (If the skin starts to burn, flip the chicken and move to the cool part of the grill.) Flip the chicken skin-side up one last time and rest on an upper rack or the cool side of the grill for 10 minutes, using a clean brush and the reserved sauce to baste once more.
  • Transfer the chicken to a platter and sprinkle the tops with the crushed coriander, then serve.

Tips:

  • For a smokier flavor, grill the chicken over medium-low heat for a longer period of time.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also bake the chicken in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • To make the barbecue sauce, you can use your favorite store-bought sauce or make your own using a variety of ingredients such as ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, and spices.
  • If you're using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent them from burning.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, potato salad, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Peachy barbecue chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a summer cookout. With its sweet and tangy flavor, this chicken is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a new way to cook chicken, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
