MAPLE BARBECUE GRILLED CHICKEN



Maple Barbecue Grilled Chicken image

Sweet, sticky, charred, and crispy: Barbecued chicken is one of the surest signs of summer. Store-bought sauce has nothing on this easy homemade version, which uses maple syrup for sweetness and Sriracha for heat. Use whatever bone-in chicken parts you like and save the leftover sauce for everything else you plan to grill this week.

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, crushed
6 Tbsp. double-concentrated tomato paste
½ cup pure maple syrup
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp. unseasoned rice vinegar
4 tsp. Sriracha or other hot sauce
Vegetable oil (for grill)
1 (3½-4-lb.) whole chicken, cut into 6-8 pieces, or whatever bone-in cut of chicken you feel like cooking
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a small saucepan over medium. Cook garlic, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly and scraping bottom of pan, until slightly darkened, about 3 minutes. Add maple syrup, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, and Sriracha. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until flavors have come together, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Transfer about half of barbecue sauce to a heatproof bowl and set aside for serving.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off); oil grate. Season chicken generously with salt. Grill chicken over direct heat, turning every minute, until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Move chicken over indirect heat. Cover, positioning vent (if your grill has one) over chicken, and continue to grill, keeping grill covered as much as possible and turning every 5 minutes or so, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 140°F-145°F, 18-25 minutes depending on the size of the pieces. Baste chicken with barbecue sauce and grill, turning and basting occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 160°F for breast and 165°F for dark meat, about 10 minutes longer.
  • Arrange chicken on a platter. Serve with reserved barbecue sauce alongside.
  • Do Ahead: Barbecue sauce can be made 2 weeks ahead. Transfer to an airtight container; cover and chill.

SOY-GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH PICKLED CUCUMBERS



Soy-Glazed Chicken Breasts With Pickled Cucumbers image

The pan-steam method used here ensures boneless, skinless chicken breasts cook quickly while staying moist. The technique works with water, but a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, honey, garlic and coriander infuses the chicken with even more flavor. Depending on the size of the skillet you use, the sauce may reduce a little slower or faster than the time indicated. When you swipe a rubber spatula across the bottom of the skillet, the sauce should hold a spatula-wide trail that fills in with liquid pretty quickly. If you happen to reduce too much, whisk in water one tablespoon at a time until you're back to a shiny sauce that can be drizzled. Rice is an obvious side, but the sliced chicken and pickled cucumbers are really good tucked inside flour tortillas, too.

Categories     dinner, weekday, poultry, vegetables, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 English cucumber, thinly sliced
1 shallot, peeled, halved and thinly sliced lengthwise
1/4 cup rice vinegar
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1 1/2 to 2 pounds)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 teaspoon coriander seeds, roughly smashed with the side of a heavy knife
Cilantro leaves and tender stems, for serving
Steamed rice, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, toss to combine the cucumber, shallot, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; set aside while you make the chicken.
  • In a shallow dish, stir soy sauce and honey together; add chicken and turn to coat.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add garlic and coriander and stir to coat. Add chicken breasts (reserve the marinade) and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. (Browning happens a little faster than usual here because of the honey and soy; if the marinade is getting too dark, lower the heat slightly.)
  • Add reserved marinade and 1/4 cup water to the skillet. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low and cook, covered, until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes more per side.
  • Uncover the skillet, increase heat to medium-high and cook, turning chicken occasionally, until liquid is reduced and chicken is glazed, about 5 minutes. Serve chicken drizzled with any leftover glaze over rice with cucumber salad and cilantro.

Tips:

  • Prep ahead: Marinating the chicken overnight or for several hours enhances the flavor, so plan accordingly.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The combination of maple syrup, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger creates a savory-sweet marinade that infuses the chicken with delicious taste.
  • Cook chicken to the right temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
  • Baste the chicken: Brush the chicken with the marinade or melted butter during cooking to keep it moist and prevent it from drying out.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Rice, quinoa, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad can complement the chicken well.
