Grilled Vegetable Skewers with a Honey Soy Glaze image

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
40 pearl onions, peeled
4 scallions, cut into thin rounds
Zest and juice from 1 large lemon
Kosher salt
3 large red bell peppers, seeded, quartered and cut into bite-size pieces (about 20 pieces per pepper)
3 large zucchini, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 20 pieces per zucchini)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Sesame seeds, for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the glaze: Cook the honey in a medium saute pan over medium heat until golden brown and bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the soy sauce, vinegar, pearl onions, scallions and lemon zest and juice. Return the pan to the heat, add 1/4 cup water and a pinch of salt and cook until the onions are tender and the sauce is reduced, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the onions and let them cool. Keep the sauce warm.
  • Skewer the vegetables: Start each skewer with a pearl onion followed by alternating 3 pieces pepper with 3 pieces zucchini and finishing with another pearl onion. Arrange the skewers in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  • Cook the vegetables: Preheat the grill for cooking at medium-high heat.
  • Brush the skewers with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place the skewers in a single layer on the hottest part of the grill. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then turn them on the other side and move them to a slightly cooler part of the grill if they are getting overdone. Cook until the vegetables are tender, an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the skewers in a single layer to a large serving platter and spoon the glaze over them. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve.

Yield Makes 8 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

9 ounces ground chicken breast meat
9 ounces ground chicken leg meat
2 large green onions, chopped
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon sansho powder
1 teaspoon plus 2 tablespoons soy sauce
16 10-inch bamboo skewers, soaked 1 hour in water
2 tablespoons mirin
Shichimi togarashi (Japanese seven-spice seasoning)

NEGIMA (GRILLED CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH GREEN ONION)



Negima (Grilled Chicken Skewers With Green Onion) image

Negima-chicken grilled on a skewer with green onion or scallion-is one of the most popular yakitori dishes in Japan and beyond.

Provided by Hiroko Shimbo

Time 1h30m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 chicken wings
¾ cup sake
1⅓ cups mirin
3 Tbsp. sugar
1⅓ cups shoyu (soy sauce)
1 boneless chicken thigh, with or without skin attached
1 boneless chicken breast, with or without skin attached
4 naganegi or scallion, or young, thin leeks, white parts only

Steps:

  • Soak 12 bamboo skewers in water for at least 1 hour. Meanwhile, make the tare. In a broiler or on a grill, cook the chicken wings until they are charred over about half their surfaces. In a medium pot, bring the sake and mirin to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium, add the sugar, and cook until the sugar is dissolved, stirring. Add the shoyu and chicken wings, and bring the mixture to a boil. Cook over low heat for 30 to 45 minutes, until the sauce is slightly thickened and glossy. Strain the sauce through a strainer lined with cotton cloth-chicken wings can be eaten as a cook's treat or saved for another purpose. Let the sauce cool to room temperature, then refrigerate it for as long as a month. Reheat the tare before using it, and once every week between uses.
  • Cut the chicken thigh and breast into small pieces, about 1 by 1¼ inches. Cut the white part of each green onion into 1¼-inch lengths. Thread two pieces of chicken thigh or breasts and three pieces of long onion or leek alternately on each skewer. When using chicken with skin, folding the edges of the skin, and tuck them between the chicken meat and the long onion or leek to prevent the skin from burning.
  • Heat a grill or broiler until hot. Cook the skewered chicken and green onion for 4 minutes, turning the skewers several times. Remove the chicken from the heat, and, with a pastry brush, baste it with tare.
  • Return the chicken to the heat, and cook for 2 minutes, turning the skewers several times. Remove the chicken from the heat, and baste again.
  • Return the chicken to the heat, and cook it for 2 minutes, turning it. Remove the chicken from the heat, baste it once more, and serve it hot.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are a good option because they are juicy and flavorful. You can also use chicken breasts, but they may be a bit drier.
  • Make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the marinade. This will help to ensure that the chicken is flavorful throughout.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out.
  • Do not overcook the chicken. Chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken immediately. This will help to ensure that the chicken is juicy and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Soy-glazed chicken skewers with green onions are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the glaze is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
