Pomegranate Grille Sauce Braised Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, and saute 6 minutes, turning once.
• Combine fruit juices in a large bowl. Stir together cornstarch and 1 tablespoon juice mixture until smooth; set aside.
• Stir soy sauce and next 6 ingredients into remaining juice mixture; pour over chicken. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 35 minutes, turning chicken after 20 minutes.
• Prepare rice according to package directions. Keep warm.
• Uncover chicken, and stir in cornstarch mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, 5 minutes or until sauce thickens.
• Spoon rice onto a serving platter; top with chicken and sauce. Sprinkle with green onions.

Steps:

• Cook garlic, ginger, spices, and 1 tsp. kosher salt in oil in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add pomegranate juice and boil until reduced to 1 cup, 12 to 19 minutes. Remove from heat, and then add jam and molasses and stir until jam has melted. Cool (it will thicken slightly). Transfer 3/4 cup sauce to a bowl and reserve for serving.
• Prepare grill for indirect heat cooking over medium hot charcoal (medium heat for gas).
• Pat chicken dry and season all over with 4 tsp. kosher salt. Oil grill rack, then grill chicken (in batches if necessary) skin side down first, directly over coals (covered only if using gas grill), turning once, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Move to area with no coals underneath (or over turned off burner for gas) and brush with some of sauce. Continue to grill, partially covered for charcoal (covered for gas), turning and brushing with sauce occasionally, until cooked through and well-glazed, 7 to 8 minutes for breasts, 15 to 20 minutes for dark meat.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Coat a large saute pan with olive oil. Toss in 2 of the garlic cloves and a pinch of crushed red pepper. Bring the pan to medium-high heat. When the garlic is golden and very aromatic, remove it and discard--it has fulfilled its garlic destiny.
• Season the chicken thighs with salt and place them skin side down in the pan. Don't crowd the pan or the thighs will steam instead of brown--you may have to work in batches here, no worries. Brown the chicken thighs really well on both sides, 10 to 12 minutes total.
• Transfer the chicken to a rimmed baking sheet and roast for 10 to 12 minutes or until cooked through.
• Ditch the oil from the pan and add 2 garlic cloves, 1/2 cup of the pomegranate molasses along with 1/2 cup of the chicken stock, scraping the mixture from the bottom of the pan. Add the thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it evaporate by half--it should be slightly thick and syrupy. Season with salt.
• Return the chicken to the pan, along with the juices from the sheet pan, scraping up any bits. Reduce the heat to medium, and cook in the sauce for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, or until the sauce thickens and it clings to the chicken in a yummy embrace.
• While the chicken roasts, add the remaining molasses, stock, and garlic to the pan along with the thyme bundle and a pinch of crushed red pepper. Taste and season with salt if needed. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer (BTB, RTS). Cook until the liquid is thick and syrupy. Discard the garlic cloves and thyme bundle.
• Remove the chicken from the oven, transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with the sauce, and sprinkle with the pomegranate seeds and chives before serving.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine cumin, 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, paprika, allspice, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and cayenne. Place chicken in a large bowl and toss with spice mixture, 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, thyme, and 6 of the chopped garlic cloves. Let rest for 30 minutes to an hour at room temperature or as long as overnight in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before grilling.
• Prepare the grill for indirect heat. For a gas grill, set one side to high. For a charcoal grill, mound coals on one side, leaving the other side empty. Brush off garlic and herbs and put chicken pieces on the unlighted or empty portion of the grill. Close cover and cook until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes a side. Transfer to a plate and brush generously with 2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses.
• Mash remaining garlic with a pinch of salt until it forms a paste. Toss the tomatoes with garlic paste, remaining 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 2 teaspoons pomegranate molasses and basil leaves. Season with additional salt, to taste. Serve alongside chicken.

Steps:

• Marinate the chicken breasts in pomegranate vinaigrette dressing for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight!
• Grill the marinated chicken breast for about 20-30 minutes, or until cooked through. Cooking time will cary based on thickness of the chicken breast.
• While the chicken breast is on the grill, prepare the Mango BBQ Sauce. Add the BBQ Sauce to a small saucepan and whisk in 1/2 cup of water. Stir in the chopped red onion and diced mango. Bring to bubbling over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and let simmer until the chicken is done grilling. Stir every few minutes.
• Serve Grilled Pomegranate Chicken with Mango BBQ Sauce -- ideally outside on the deck on a beautiful evening. :).

Steps:

• For Sauce: Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions; sauté 5 minutes. Add walnuts. Sauté until nuts are slightly darkened, about 12 minutes. Mix in the remaining ingredients. Reduce heat to medium. Simmer until sauce thickens, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made one day ahead. Cover; chill. Rewarm, thinning with more broth if desired.).
• For Chicken: Prepare barbecue (medium heat). Mix molasses and cinnamon. Brush chicken with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook chicken glazing in the last minutes of cooking.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven (or pan that can go from the stove top to the oven with a lid) melt the butter and add the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned and the skin is crisp on both sides. Remove chicken and add the chopped leeks. Cook until tender. Add the wine and Stonewall Kitchen Pomegranate Grille Sauce to the leeks. Stir until combined. Return chicken to the pot skin side down. Cover and bake in a 350 degree F oven (or cover and simmer) for 1 1/2 hours turning once halfway through the cook time. The chicken should be tender and falling away from the bone. Remove from the oven. Remove chicken, skim and discard the clear fat from the sauce. Serve the chicken and the sauce over your favorite rice dish.

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or in a pot with a tight-fitting lid, mix the onions, 1 1/2 cups cilantro, the garlic and the spices. Blend in the diluted tamarind paste, the diluted pomegranate paste, the ketchup and the salt.
• Add chicken thighs and legs to pot, and submerge in sauce. Cover, and cook on medium-high heat for 10 minutes, then lower heat, and cook for 1 hour. Uncover, adjust seasonings to taste, and continue cooking for 20 minutes.
• Transfer chicken and sauce to a serving platter, and garnish with remaining cilantro. Sprinkle pomegranate seeds over platter, and serve hot.
