Barbecued Garlic Chicken image

This is my variation on a Thai dish call Gai Yang. It is a versatile dish which can be eaten cold at a picnic. It is a crowd pleaser.

Categories     Chicken

Time P1DT30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 kg chicken or 1 1/2 kg chicken pieces
3 teaspoons chopped garlic
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons black peppercorns
1 cup finely chopped fresh coriander, including the roots of the coriander (cilantro)
2 tablespoons lime juice
cherry tomatoes
spring onion, curls (green)

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken in half lengthways, and if you like, remove the bones with a small pointed knife, leaving only the wing bones.
  • If using chicken pieces, proceed directly to step 2.
  • Crush the garlic with the salt to a smooth paste.
  • Coarsely crush the peppercorns in a motar and pestle or a blender.
  • Combine in a flat dish with the coriander, and the lime juice.
  • Rub the mixture into the cicken on all sides, cover and refrigerate overnight, or at least an hour.
  • However, this recipe tastes better if refrigerated over night.
  • Barbecue the chicken halves or chicken pieces, turning the chicken every 5 minutes or so, until the chicken is no longer pink and the skin is crisp.
  • If the weather does not permit, you can cook under a grill, (broiler) or in the oven.
  • To serve the boned chicken, diagonally slice the chicken skin side up and place on a serving platter.
  • If using chicken pieces arrange the pieces on a serving platter.
  • Garnish with halved cherry tomatoes and curls of spring (green) onions.
  • Serve with a salad of sliced tomatoes, sliced cucumber and spring (green) onions which have been seasoned with lime juice and salt only.
  • A side dish of steamed rice goes well with this dish.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some rotisserie chicken and it was delicious.

I was short on time, so I used store-bought garlic sauce. The chicken still turned out really well.

The garlic sauce was a bit too spicy for my taste, but the chicken was cooked perfectly. I will try it again with a milder sauce.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it is definitely worth it. The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the garlic sauce was amazing.

The chicken was a bit dry for my taste, but the garlic sauce was delicious. I will try it again with a different cooking method.
