Sweet Chili Garlic Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Set oven control to broil. Line broiler pan with nonstick foil. In small bowl, mix preserves and chili garlic sauce. Place 1/4 cup sauce in small microwavable bowl; set aside.
• Sprinkle salt evenly over both sides of chicken breasts. Place on broiler pan top-side down. Broil 4 to 6 inches from heat 8 minutes; turn chicken. Broil 4 to 6 minutes longer or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (165°F). Remove from oven. Divide remaining apricot mixture evenly over tops of chicken breasts (about 1 tablespoon per chicken breast), spreading to cover. Return to oven; broil 1 to 3 minutes longer or until sauce bubbles.
• Meanwhile, microwave reserved apricot mixture uncovered on High 30 to 45 seconds, stirring every 15 seconds, until heated through. Serve warm sauce with chicken.

Steps:

• Whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, honey, and ginger in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the chicken breast and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours.
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the spaghetti, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink. Stir in 1 tablespoon of butter and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the marinade, and shake off excess, then add to the skillet. Discard the remaining marinade. Cook the chicken breast strips until no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. Serve chicken over spaghetti.

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix together sweet chili sauce, soy sauce and garlic. Pour 1/2 cup (half the mixture) into a small plastic food storage zip bag. Add chicken and turn to coat; refrigerate and marinade 30 minutes.
• To a skillet, add a tablespoon or two of oil and heat over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and brown on one side for about 2-3 minutes (it may smoke a little from the sweet marinade). Turn the chicken over and brown for 2 minutes longer. Cover with a lid, turn the heat to low and let it finish cooking for about 8 minutes.
• Place remaining chili sauce and soy sauce mixture in a small saucepan and simmer over low heat until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve over chicken.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add ginger, green onions and garlic and stir 30 seconds.
• Add chicken cubes and stir-fry 2 or 3 minutes, until browned.
• Mix the hoisin, chili sauce and soy sauce and add to the chicken.
• Cook until chicken is fully cooked.
• Add spinach and cook a minute until just wilted.
• Serve over rice and garnish with cilantro.
• If you prefer a thick sauce combine a teaspoon of cornstarch with a bit of water and stir in until sauce thickens.
• Leftovers make a good wrap filling with additional vegetables.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine the chili garlic sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sugar, soy sauce and garlic. Bring to a low simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and cook about 10 minutes. Spoon 1/4 cup of the mixture into a small bowl, whisk in the cornstarch until combined and then whisk back into the saucepan. Let simmer an additional 10 minutes to thicken. Let cool completely.
• Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken and place in a 9-by-13-inch pan. Pour half of the chili garlic mixture over the chicken and toss to coat; reserve the remaining sauce. Cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate for 4 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bake the chicken, covered in foil, for 35 to 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the grill to medium high.
• Remove the chicken from the oven and grill, basting with the reserved sauce, until the skin is crispy, a few minutes per side. (Alternatively, the chicken can be finished under the broiler. Remove the foil from the pan and put under the broiler for a few minutes until the skin is crispy.)
• Transfer the chicken to a serving platter, spoon the remaining reserved sauce over the top and garnish with cilantro. Serve with the Cucumber Salad.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the vinegar and honey until emulsified. Add the cucumbers and cilantro and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until serving time.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line 2 large rimmed baking pans with parchment paper.
• Divide the wings between the baking pans and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Arrange skin-side up and roast until the skin is golden brown and crispy, about 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until the garlic is golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the apricot jam, sugar, soy sauce and sriracha and bring to a simmer. Pour the sauce into a large bowl.
• When the wings are ready, use tongs to add them to the bowl with the sauce and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the chives.

Steps:

• Cut each chicken wing in half at joint. Mix oil, cilantro, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons garlic, ginger and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper in large bowl. Add chicken wings and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Using tongs, transfer chicken wings to large baking sheet. Bake until cooked through and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine vinegar, sugar, water, chili-garlic sauce, remaining 1/2 tablespoon garlic and remaining 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper in medium saucepan. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer until glaze mixture thickens to syrup consistency, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer baked chicken wings to large bowl. Pour glaze over; toss to coat. Place chicken wings atop steamed white rice. Sprinkle with green onions.
