Grilled Hoisin Chicken with Mai Fun image

This makes a great alternative to traditional barbecued chicken. And the chicken is moist, tender, with a rich, nutty, Oriental flavor. Absolutely wonderful!

Time P1DT1h15m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 lbs bone-in chicken breasts
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
2 -3 cups uncooked mai fun rice noodles (optional)
cooking oil (as needed) (optional)

Steps:

  • The night before preparing food, mix together marinade ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Place chicken in a ziplock bag and add marinade and seal, removing as much air as possible.
  • Refrigerate overnight, turning occasionally.
  • The next day, well before preparing food, heat oil to a depth of 2-inches at 375-400F in a large skillet or use a deep fryer.
  • Add small amounts of mai fun to hot oil and allow them to cook briefly (they will puff like rice cereal and float to the top almost instantly); remove them and drain as soon as they do this and set aside to use later.
  • Whisk together ingredients for sauce in a small saucepan and bring to a boil; lower heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes then remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • Bring chicken out of refrigeration and allow to warm to room temp- 30-45 min, then drain from marinade, reserving marinade.
  • Bring marinade to a boil in a saucepan, lower heat, and simmer for 2-3 minutes, then allow to cool (if it gets too thick, add a little water); use for basting chicken as it cooks.
  • Prepare grill, allowing for cooking with indirect heat.
  • Grill chicken using an indirect heat method, preferably charcoal, 45 min-75 min, depending on grill temp, or until chicken reaches an internal temp of at least 170F in the thickest part of the breast, basting occasionally.
  • As chicken nears doneness, apply sauce mixture to chicken and allow to glaze and cook onto it, then remove chicken from grill.
  • Sprinkle chicken with toasted sesame seeds.
  • Arrange a bed of puffed mai fun on a serving plate and arrange chicken on top of it; serve at once with other foods as desired.

I'm not a huge fan of hoisin sauce, but I really enjoyed this dish. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful without being too overpowering.

I found the chicken to be a bit dry. I think I should have grilled it for less time.

The hoisin sauce is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would probably use less of it next time.
