Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1/3 cup Fusia Asian Inspirations Soy Sauce
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons Carlini Toasted Sesame Oil or Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Simply Nature Organic Wildflower Honey
2 tablespoons packed Simply Nature Organic Light Brown Sugar (or sub coconut sugar)
1 small or medium lime, juiced
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
1 teaspoon Stonemill Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
2 ½ pounds chicken drumsticks, skin removed (or chicken breasts and/or thighs will also work)
To garnish:
Chopped Southern Grove Honey Roasted Peanuts
Diced green onion
Diced cilantro

Steps:

Make the chicken marinade. In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, water, oil, honey, brown sugar, lime juice, garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes. Reserve 1/2 cup of marinade and place in a small bowl in the fridge. You'll use this for glazing the chicken on the grill later.
Marinate the chicken: Pat the drumsticks dry, remove the skin, season them with a pinch of salt, and add them to the large bowl or a shallow dish with the Thai chicken marinade. Mix to coat the chicken evenly, then marinate in the refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour, or up to 24 hours.
About a half hour before you're ready to cook the chicken, remove the chicken from the marinade and allow it to come to room temperature. Preheat a grill to 400 degrees F.
Grill the chicken: brush the hot grill grate with oil. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 8 minutes, then flip. Generously brush each drumstick with the reserved marinade a few times, and grill for an additional 8 minutes. Turn the chicken over one last time, brush again with the remaining marinade, and cook for 5 more minutes or until no pink remains in the center of the chicken.
To serve: Place the chicken on a platter or large plate, then garnish with honey roasted peanuts, diced green onion and cilantro. Serves 4, 2 drumsticks each.

GINGERY GRILLED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH CHARRED PEACHES

Gingery Grilled Chicken Thighs With Charred Peaches image

Coated in a balsamic vinegar glaze that's spiked with ginger, garlic and soy sauce, these chicken thighs are sweet-tart and irresistibly sticky. They're served with grilled thyme and honey butter-basted peaches, which become soft and wonderfully jammy on the fire. The yogurt is optional. It adds a cool and creamy counterpart to the char and smoke, but the dish is just as satisfying without it.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Ingredients

5 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (preferably the good, syrupy kind)
2 tablespoons finely grated fresh ginger and any ginger juice from a 2-inch piece
Kosher salt
2 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
8 fresh thyme sprigs, or 4 fresh rosemary sprigs
3 garlic cloves, finely grated or mashed to a paste
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice, plus more as needed
Olive oil, for brushing
Plain whole-milk yogurt, for serving (optional)
3 scallions, white and green parts, thinly sliced (optional)
Handful of torn fresh basil (optional)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme, or 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon honey
3 to 4 ripe peaches or nectarines, halved and pitted
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

Marinate the chicken: In a small bowl, mix together balsamic vinegar, grated ginger and a pinch of salt.
Season chicken all over with salt, and put it in a larger bowl or resealable bag. Add 2 tablespoons of the balsamic mixture. (Give it a stir before measuring in case any of the ginger has fallen to the bottom. Save remaining balsamic for serving.) Add the thyme, garlic, soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon lime juice. Cover bowl or close bag, and let chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
Light the grill or heat the broiler, arranging the rack about 4 inches from the heat source.
Prepare the peaches: In a bowl, combine butter, thyme and honey. Brush peaches lightly with butter mixture and place in a grilling basket, if you have one, or directly on the grill. Grill over direct heat until just charred, 2 to 4 minutes per side. You'll know they are done when the skin curls back and the flesh starts to melt. Transfer to a serving platter or plates, and, if you like, drizzle with a little more of the butter mixture and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
If there's room on the grill, cook the chicken at the same time (or wait until peaches are done). Brush off any clinging pieces of marinade from chicken, pat it dry, and coat lightly with oil. Grill or broil until charred and browned, 4 to 6 minutes per side.
Transfer chicken to a platter or serving plates, along with the peaches. Serve with dollops of yogurt on the side if you like, and a drizzle with some of the remaining gingery balsamic and a little more olive oil. Scatter with scallions and basil, if using, for garnish.

Tips for Making Grilled Ginger-Peach Chicken Breast:

- **Choose ripe peaches:** Select peaches that are fragrant, slightly soft when pressed, and free of blemishes. You can also use canned peach slices if fresh ones are unavailable. - **Make sure the chicken is boneless and skinless:** This will help it cook evenly and quickly. If you are using bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts, remove the bones and skin before cooking. - **Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness:** This will help them cook evenly. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the chicken breasts to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. - **Marinate the chicken:** The marinade will help to flavor and tenderize the chicken. Combine the soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil in a bowl. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade and let them sit for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. - **Preheat your grill:** Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before cooking the chicken. If you are using a charcoal grill, let the coals burn down until they are white-hot. - **Grill the chicken:** Grill the chicken breasts for 8-10 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit. - **Serve the chicken:** Serve the grilled ginger-peach chicken breasts immediately with your favorite sides, such as rice, noodles, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Grilled ginger-peach chicken breast is a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed all summer long. By following these tips, you can make sure that your grilled chicken is juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Serve it with your favorite sides for a complete meal that everyone will love.
