Carambola Glazed Barbequed Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• For the sauce: In a bowl whisk together the ketchup, BBQ sauce, sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and BBQ rub seasoning. Then pour the sauce in a thick-bottomed saucepan over low heat. Cook to blend the flavors, 10 to 15 minutes. Once warmed, remove from the heat and hold in a warm spot.
• For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Drizzle both sides of each chicken with the oil. Next, mix the salt, pepper and cumin in a bowl, and then sprinkle over both sides of each chicken. Place the chicken, breast-side up, on a flat cookie sheet and cook until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes.
• When fully cooked, remove the chickens and lightly glaze the skin with the BBQ sauce. Return the chickens to the oven, allowing the BBQ sauce to glaze the birds, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Serve with a choice of sides.

Steps:

• Combine orange peel, orange marmalade, oil, thyme, coriander, red pepper and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
• Peel and quarter grapefruit and kiwi.
• Pit and quarter nectarines. Cut star fruit into 1/2 inch thick slices.
• Thread fruits on 4 metal skewers.
• Grill chicken directly over medium heat for 12 to 15 minutes until chicken is no longer pink, turning once.
• During the last 8 minutes of grilling place fruit skewers directly over medium heat. Brush fruit and chicken with the marmalade mixture often. Turn fruit once.
• While the chicken and fruit are grilling prepare some rice for a great side dish. Or to add even more of the islands to your meal you could use couscous as a great side dish choice.

Steps:

• Marinate the chickens in 2/3 of the barbecue sauce for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
• Heat the coals in a charcoal grill. Spread the bottom of the grill with a single layer of hot coals and then add a few more coals 5 minutes before cooking, which will keep the fire going longer. Place the chicken quarters on the grill, skin side down, and cook for about 45 minutes, turning once or twice to cook evenly on both sides. Brush with the marinade as needed. The chicken quarters are done when you insert a knife between a leg and thigh and the juices run clear. Discard any unused marinade.
• Serve with extra barbecue sauce on the side.
• In a large saucepan on low heat, saute the onions and garlic with the vegetable oil for 10 to 15 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not browned. Add the tomato paste, vinegar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, chili powder, cumin, and red pepper flakes. Simmer uncovered on low heat for 30 minutes. Use immediately or store in the refrigerator.

• Grill over medium coals for 30 minutes,turning occasionally and basting with the carambola mixture after every turn.
• The chicken is done when it reaches 170* on a meat thermometer.
• Allow to stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat.
• Pour 1/4 cup dressing over chicken in shallow dish; turn to evenly coat both sides of each breast. Refrigerate 10 min.
• Meanwhile, mix barbecue sauce, marmalade and remaining dressing.
• Remove chicken from dressing; discard dressing. Grill chicken 5 to 7 min. on each side or until done (165°F), brushing occasionally with barbecue sauce mixture for the last few minutes.

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In small bowl, mix glaze ingredients; set aside.
• Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Place chicken on grill, skin side down, over medium heat. Cook 10 minutes. Turn chicken; brush half the glaze evenly over chicken. Continue cooking and brushing with remaining glaze 10 to 12 minutes longer or until juice of chicken is clear when thickest part is cut to bone (170°F).

Steps:

• Cook shallots in oil in a 4-quart heavy pot over moderately low heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until soft, 12 to 14 minutes (reduce heat to low if shallots begin to brown). Stir in vinegar, tomato purée, honey, steak sauce, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil. Remove sauce from heat and reserve 1 1/2 cups for basting and 1 cup for serving. Cool sauce to room temperature before brushing on chicken (sauce will thicken as it cools).
• Remove excess fat from chicken and pat chicken dry. Brush all over with some barbecue sauce and season with salt and pepper.
• To cook chicken using a charcoal grill:
• Open vents on bottom of grill and on lid. Light a large chimney of charcoal briquettes (about 100) and pour them evenly over 1 side of bottom rack (you will have a double or triple layer of charcoal).
• When charcoal turns grayish white (15 to 20 minutes from lighting) and you can hold your hand 5 inches above top rack for 3 to 4 seconds, sear chicken on lightly oiled grill rack over coals, uncovered, turning, until well browned, about 3 minutes total.
• Move chicken to side of grill with no coals underneath, arranging skin sides up, then cook, covered with lid, brushing with sauce and turning every 10 minutes, until cooked through, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• To cook chicken using a gas grill:
• Preheat all burners on high, then adjust heat to moderate. Sear chicken on lightly oiled grill rack, uncovered, turning, until well browned, about 10 minutes total. Adjust heat to low, then cook chicken, covered with lid, brushing with sauce and turning every 10 minutes, until cooked through, about 25 minutes.
• Serve chicken with reserved cup sauce.

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Place the chicken in a heavy bag and set in a large bowl.
• In a small pot, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the whole crushed garlic cloves to the oil and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the oil stand until cool.
• Remove the garlic from the cooled oil and discard. Combine the oil, paprika, piri-piri sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder and the salt and pepper. Pour over the chicken, turning to coat, then close bag and refrigerate overnight, turning several times. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour prior to cooking.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F Remove the chicken from the marinade. Lay the carrots in the roasting pan then place the chicken on top of the carrots. Pour the marinade over the chicken then add the water to the pan. Bake in the oven, basting regularly for approximately 120 - 180 minutes, or until a meat thermometer registers 180°F (add a bit more water if sauce gets dry). Add the potatoes to the roasting pan after the chicken has been in the oven for 1/2 an hour. Taste the potatoes for salt and adjust to suit your taste. I like my sauce nice and red, so will usually add extra paprika while it's cooking.
• Remove the chicken from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Strain the marinade from the pan and serve with the chicken.
• ***Alternatively, the chicken can be placed on a rotisserie rod with a drip pan placed below and slightly in front of the bird to catch any drippings and prevent flare-ups as the bird rotates. Add the remaining marinade and water to the drip pan. Grill the chicken on a medium-high setting, brushing often with the marinade. Barbeque for approximately 120 minutes, or until the meat thermometer registers 180°F I have also cut up the chicken prior to marinating it, then barbequed it low and slow on the grill -- delicious.***.
