Grilled Chicken Breast with Ginger and Soy image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups soy sauce
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup dark sesame oil
1 lime, juiced
4 inches fresh ginger, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded thin

Steps:

  • Combine the 1 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, half of the lime juice, ginger, and garlic, and 1/4 cup cilantro in the bottom of each of 2 large freezer bags. Put 2 chicken breasts in each bag and get them coated with the marinade. Then set the bags on a work surface, force the air out and seal them. Allow chicken to marinade for 1 hour. You can also freeze the chicken right in the marinade at this point. To do so fold each bag over the chicken 3 times, tape them well, and date them. Put it in the freezer for up to 2 months.
  • Place a large grill pan on 2 burners over medium-high heat, or preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal grill. Fold a few paper towels into a thick square. Blot some oil on the paper towels and then carefully and quickly wipe the ridges of the gill pan or the hot grates of the grill to make a non-stick surface.
  • Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Lay the chicken on the hot grill and cook 3 to 5 minutes on each side until charred and firm. Serve with the sesame noodles and cucumber pickles.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, 6 ounces each
salt and black pepper
1 cup sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

In a small bowl, mix sesame seeds and chile flakes and then dredge the chicken breasts in the mixture to coat them. Heat vegetable oil in a large saute pan until smoking hot. Add chicken brests and brown each side well, about 2 minutes per side.
  • Remove chicken from pan and transfer to a baking pan. Bake for another 3 to 5 minutes until the chicken breasts are just cooked through.
  • For the sauce,while the chicken breasts are baking, heat veg. oil in the same pan you removed them from. Add the garlic and gingerroot and saute until you can smell the aroma, 1 to 2 minutes over high heat. Add mirin wine and boil over high heat until reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken stock and boil over high heat to reduce a bit, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • If the chicken breasts are finished cooking by this time, remove them from the oven and allow to stand. Add hoisin sauce and chile sauce to saute pan and bring to a boil. Season with sesame oil, basil, and soy sauce.
  • Serve chicken breasts over steamed rice or couscous. Serve half of the sauce over the chicken and the remainder on the side. This will not be a very thick sauce; it is meant to be thin and light. Enjoy!

CROCK POT SOY GINGER CHICKEN



Crock Pot Soy Ginger Chicken image

This is wonderful served with rice, garnished with a cilantro sprig and some chopped scallions! From the food section of the Houston Chronicle. Drumsticks and thighs hold up to long, slow cooking without drying out. If you prefer, you can substitute all thighs or all drumsticks for the combination. This is also good with pasta such as linguine or fettuccine instead of the rice. Either way, there will be plenty of yummy sauce to go around!

GINGER CHICKEN STIR-FRY ROMAINE WRAPS WITH CITRUS SOY (PF CHANG)



Ginger Chicken Stir-Fry Romaine Wraps With Citrus Soy (Pf Chang) image

Found this on the PF Chang website. I'm hoping it's as tasty as the dishes I've tried at their restaurant. A note on the site said this can also be made with baby shrimp, fish, or beef. Vegetable oil can be used if you don't have soy bean oil.

Provided by marisk

Categories     Chicken

Time 27m

Yield 8-10 lettuce wraps

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb chicken, diced into tiny pieces
3 tablespoons soy bean oil
3 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dry chili flakes
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
2 heads romaine lettuce, cleaned
1 ounce scallion, sliced thin in rings

Steps:

  • Place the chicken in a mixing bowl and add 2 tablespoons soy bean oil, ginger, garlic, chili flakes, and 2 tablespoons soy sauce. Mix together in circular motion until well mixed. Marinate in refrigerator for 2-4 hours.
  • Mix together the citrus juices, soy, and hoisin sauce with a whisk. Reserve until needed. Clean the romaine lettuce, chopping off the stem, peeling each 'spear' and running under clean cold water. Reserve in refrigerator until ready to use. Chop scallions into rings and reserve chilled.
  • Coat a very hot sauté pan lightly with soy bean oil. Sauté the chicken (in a thin layer), searing until crispy and golden brown, about 2 ½ minutes. Once chicken is brown, toss gently in pan and sear another 2 ½ minutes. The pan will appear to "burn", but that is the carmelization and where all the flavor comes from.
  • Add ½ of the citrus soy mixture to the sauté pan and coat well. Let the sauce coat the chicken until it is glazed, and thickens on the chicken. Add more or less depending on how "wet" you want your mixture. Spoon chicken onto a plate.
  • Wrap the chicken mixture onto the romaine lettuce and top with scallion rings. Serve and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will make the cooking process much smoother and faster.
  • Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a much more intense flavor than ground ginger, so it's worth using it whenever possible. If you don't have fresh ginger on hand, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger instead.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is a delicate protein, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Serve with rice or noodles: Soy ginger chicken is a great dish to serve with rice or noodles. The sauce is flavorful and pairs well with either one.

Conclusion:

Soy ginger chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the sauce is flavorful and tangy. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
