Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 whole red onion
1 cup diced red pepper
2 seeded Scotch Bonnet peppers
2 whole papayas, peeled and seeded
1 bulb fresh garlic, separated into cloves and peeled
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 cup malt vinegar
3 cups white wine
2 tablespoons dry mustard
1 cup water
2 cups sugar
2 cups yellow mustard
2 chickens, halved
Olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, plus sprigs for garnish
4 pieces Cuban bread
Black beans and yellow rice, as accompaniment

Steps:

  • For the Sauce:
  • In a food processor, combine onion, red pepper, Scotch bonnets, papaya, and garlic and pulse to chop.
  • Transfer the finely chopped ingredients to a saucepan. Add lemon juice, malt vinegar, white wine, dry mustard, water, and sugar. Bring to a simmer over low heat. Cook slowly until the mixture is thickened, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the yellow mustard.
  • For the chicken:
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Season the chicken well with salt and pepper on both sides. Place in a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and toss with thyme. Bake until the chicken is just cooked through, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven.
  • Cuban Bread:
  • While the chicken is cooking, prepare the Cuban bread. Preheat a sandwich press or 2 cast iron skillets, 1 a little larger than the other. Slice the bread in 1/2 horizontally. Spread both cut sides with butter. Press the cut side together and place in the sandwich press. Close and toast until golden brown and the butter is melted. If using skillets, place the bread in the larger skillet. Top with the smaller, heated skillet and cook until both sides are golden brown and the butter is melted.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Brush the sauce on the chicken, coating well. Place in the broiler and broil until the sauce bubbles and starts to brown. Remove from the heat and serve with cuban bread, black beans, and yellow rice. Garnish with thyme sprigs.

Lawry's Seasoned Salt
2 lemons

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught, sustainable salmon that is fresh or frozen. If using frozen salmon, thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Make sure your grill is clean and well-oiled. This will help prevent the salmon from sticking.
  • Cook the salmon over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the fish while cooking the inside through.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it is important to cook it just until it is cooked through. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Baste the salmon with the barbecue sauce during the last few minutes of cooking. This will help to keep the salmon moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for salmon include grilled vegetables, rice, or salad.

Conclusion:

Jimmy Buffett's Salmon Barbecue is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a summer cookout. The salmon is grilled to perfection and basted with a flavorful barbecue sauce. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
