A recipe I found on About.com for Thai recipes that I am posting for ZWT. Here is what is stated about the recipe: "This chicken wings recipe is very easy to make, and the taste is superb. Even your kids will go crazy for these chicken wings, which turn out naturally glazed with a garlicky and slightly sweet sauce. Barbecue them outdoors, or bake them in your oven - either way, they turn out fabulous. Chicken wings are always a popular choice for dinner, whether during the week or on long, hot summer weekends.

Time 30m

Yield 12-24 wings, 6-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 lbs chicken wings (12-24)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons fish sauce
4 -5 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons Thai sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 fresh red chili, chopped (OR 3/4 to 1.5 tsp. dried crushed chili, to taste)

Steps:

  • Mix all 'Marinade' ingredients together in a small bowl. Stir well to dissolve sugar.
  • Place wings in a large bowl and pour sauce over. Stir well to coat chicken with sauce. Allow wings to marinate 10 minutes or longer while you heat up the grill (up to 24 hours).
  • Grill the wings, basting them once each side with some of the leftover marinade from the bottom of the bowl. OR cook them in your oven (see next instructions).
  • To Cook Wings Indoors: Place wings in a baking dish and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Then turn oven to "Broil" setting. Transfer wings to baking sheet and place wings on one of the higher racks in your oven. Watch the wings carefully, as they can easily burn. Turn them every 5 minutes for 15-20 minutes, or until glossy and browned. Baste them once with leftover marinade from the bottom of the bowl.
  • Serve the wings as is, or with rice on the side. ENJOY!

Categories     main-dish

Time 12h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 stalks fresh lemon grass
2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 1/2 cups light soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons red curry paste
2 pounds chicken breasts and thighs, on the bone
1 tablespoon finely chopped chiles
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon finely chopped very fresh garlic

Steps:

  • Remove the grassy tops of the lemon grass, leaving stalks about 6 inches long, and cut off any hard root section. Using the blunt edge of a large knife or cleaver, bruise each stalk all over, then chop. Combine marinade ingredients in blender, process until smooth and pour into a nonreactive bowl. Add chicken, turning to coat all over. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Meanwhile, combine the sauce ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a boil while stirring. Reduce heat and simmer 2 to 3 minutes, or until thickened slightly, then remove from heat.
  • Prepare grill or preheat broiler. Remove chicken from marinade, and grill or broil breasts and thighs until golden brown on all sides over high heat, starting chicken skin-side down first. Then move chicken to a medium hot part of the grill or broiler until cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes total. Serve with Sweet and Spicy Sauce.

Thai BBQ Garlic Pepper Chicken (Gai Yang) image

This easy recipe comes big with the flavor. BBQ chicken is commonplace throughout Thailand and much of SE Asia. While the variations are as plentiful as the street vendors, this version is sure to please.

Provided by Patrick Johnson

Categories     Chicken

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 lb chicken thighs
12 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
4 Tbsp black peppercorns, whole, cracked to medium coursness
1 c cilantro, fresh, finely chopped
6-8 Tbsp lime juice, freshly squeezed

Steps:

  • 1. Make several slices into each chicken thigh to allow marinade to absorb better.
  • 2. Mix garlic and salt into a smooth paste.
  • 3. In a flat dish or large ziplock bag(s), combine garlic, peppercorns, cilantro and lime juice.
  • 4. Place chicken in marinade and rub the mixture into the the chicken well.
  • 5. Marinate overnight.
  • 6. TIP: Place chicken on the part of the grill with no flames with the other half of the grill with medium to high flames and close the lid. This will partially bake the chicken while reducing the chance of burning due to flare ups. When almost done (after approximately 20 minutes), open the lid and finish cooking over the flame to crisp the outside of the thighs.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts for the best flavor and texture.
  • Make sure the chicken is well-marinated: The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be. Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the chicken over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice char on the outside of the chicken while keeping the inside moist.
  • Baste the chicken with the marinade: This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for Thai BBQ chicken include sticky rice, grilled vegetables, and a refreshing salad.

Conclusion:

Thai BBQ chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet, savory, and slightly smoky flavor, Thai BBQ chicken is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a flavorful and satisfying meal, give Thai BBQ chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
