Categories     Main Course

Time 44m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs ((or breasts))
garnish (optional) - 2-3 green onions
1 1/2 tablespoon lime juice ((about 1 small lime))
1 1/2 tablespoon neutral or vegetable oil ((vegetable, canola, olive oil-but not extra virgin))
2 tablespoon soy sauce ((low sodium is fine))
1/2 tablespoon Fish sauce (Note 1)
2 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoon minced garlic ((2 garlic cloves))
1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger - or more if you like ((or pinch of ground ginger))
1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes ((medium to medium-mild heat))
1 tablespoon cilantro ((and more for garnish if desired))

Steps:

  • PREPARE CHICKEN: Trim larger pieces of fat from chicken (don't worry about smaller ones - they'll burn off). Pound chicken to even thickness for even cooking. I use the bottom of a pot or heal of my hand.
  • MARINATE CHICKEN: Place all marinade ingredients in a ziploc bag or sealed container. Mix or squish bag to combine well. Add chicken, Seal bag/container and marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes or overnight in fridge.
  • HEAT GRILL to medium-high. Oil grill with paper towel or spray.
  • GRILL CHICKEN AND SERVE: Remove chicken from marinade (reserve marinade for sauce if desired Note 2). If using low salt soy sauce, lightly sprinkle chicken with salt. Grill chicken for 3-5 minutes per side, depending on thickness of chicken. Instant thermometer should read 160F. Add green onions for last 2-3 minutes if using. Transfer chicken to plate. Cover loosely with foil and let rest 5 minutes. Garnish with green onions and chopped fresh cilantro if desired. Note 3 to bake.

BROILED CHICKEN WINGS RECIPE



Broiled Chicken Wings Recipe image

Provided by Victor

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs chicken wings ((about 2 dozen chicken wingettes and drumettes))
1/4 cup olive oil ((or vegetable oil))
2 Tbsp lime juice ((or lemon juice))
2 tsp honey
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 tsp powdered onion
2 tsp powdered garlic
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper ((double if you want the wings to more kick))
2 tsp dry mustard powder ((e.g. Colman's))

Steps:

  • First, prepare the oven for broiling. Position the rack about 10 inches from the broiler heating element. In my electric oven I place it in the fourth position from the top. Take note of the width and depth of the heating element, you will need that in a later step.Set the broiler to high. If you put the wings in while it's preheating they may burn so it's always a good idea to let the oven pre-heat first for about 20 minutes or so.
  • Combine all of the ingredients for the rub in a medium bowl. Add the wings and mix well until they are evenly coated all over.
  • Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil, then place a cooling rack on top. You don't have to use aluminum foil but if you do, it will save a lot of cleaning time afterwards.
  • Dump the wings on the cooling rack and spread around, leaving some space in between the wings, while making sure that the wings will be directly under the heating element.
  • Transfer the baking sheet with the wings to the oven and let them broil for 10 minutes on high. Do not open the oven during this time as every time you open the oven you will lose heat and the heating element will be heating and getting very hot which may cause the wings brown too fast.
  • After 10 minutes, the wings will have crisped up quite nicely. If not, let the broiled a few minutes more. Otherwise, flip them and continue broiling on high for another 10 minutes, or until the desired level of browning.
  • Remove the wings from the oven, transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately. You can serve these wings as is, they are perfectly seasoned, with a dash of freshly squeezed lime juice, or with a dipping sauce, or tossed in your favorite BBQ or hot sauce.

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h15m

Yield 24 wings

1/2 cup chicken bouillon powder (weird I know, but it works)

1/2 cup pureed shallot (onion works fine too)

GRILLED VIETNAMESE CHICKEN



Grilled Vietnamese Chicken image

This chicken is just full of flavor. Scoring the breast or thigh before marinating allows the marinade to penetrate the meat better and faster. I found this recipe in Cooking Pleasures Magazine and we just loved it. Another plus is a short marinading time that does not compromise the flavor at all. Longer would only make it better.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons molasses
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
2 teaspoons black pepper (I use red pepper flakes and it was VERY good)
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (thighs would work well too)

Steps:

  • Heat grill.
  • Place all the ingredients except the chicken in a shallow glass baking dish and stir them together.
  • Make shallow slits across the chicken breast, going a little deeper in the thick end.
  • Make shallow slits long ways, resulting in a slight diamond pattern in the meat.
  • Put the chicken in the marinade and make sure some gets in the slits.
  • This only needs to marinade for 10 or 15 minutes to pick up the flavor, I believe this is because of the slits.
  • Place on grill and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until no longer pink.
  • Turn once during cooking.
