Tangy Thai Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute chicken, onion, and garlic in the hot oil until chicken is no longer pink, about 6 minutes.
• Combine coconut milk, sugar, diced jalapenos, rice vinegar, salt, and turmeric in a bowl.
• Reduce heat to medium and pour coconut mixture into the pan with the chicken. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook until chicken is cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in basil.

Steps:

• Whisk chicken broth, oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a bowl until well blended.
• Heat large skillet over high heat. Drizzle in oil. Add chicken and stir fry until it loses its raw color, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in shallots, garlic, and sliced chilies. Continue cooking on high heat until some of the juices start to caramelize in the bottom of the pan, about 2 or 3 more minutes. Add about a tablespoon of the sauce mixture to the skillet; cook and stir until sauce begins to caramelize, about 1 minute.
• Pour in the rest of the sauce. Cook and stir until sauce has deglazed the bottom of the pan. Continue to cook until sauce glazes onto the meat, 1 or 2 more minutes. Remove from heat.
• Stir in basil. Cook and stir until basil is wilted, about 20 seconds. Serve with rice.

Steps:

• Combine curry paste and oil in a bowl. Stir until paste is softened.
• Mix in 3/4 of the coconut milk and taste the mixture. If it tastes bland, add more curry paste and salt, until it is pleasantly pungent. If too spicy, add a little more coconut milk.
• Place chicken into a plastic zip lock bag, pour in marinade and seal. Toss to coat evenly. Allow to sit at room temperature for 20 minutes. For a more intense flavor, marinate for several hours in refrigerator.
• Drain and discard the marinade. In a skillet or on a grill, on medium heat, grill the chicken 10 to 12 minutes, turning onto each side twice. Brush each side with a few tablespoons of chili sauce.
• The chicken is done when it is white throughout, but still juicy and the sauce is a bit caramelized in spots.
• Serve the chicken breasts whole or thickly sliced and mounded on a platter over rice. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and chopped cilantro. You can also serve a little chili sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Simmer 1 cup ketchup, 1/2 cup cider vinegar, 3 tablespoons each molasses and brown sugar, 1 tablespoon each dried mustard and soy sauce, 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 cup water, and kosher salt and pepper to taste until thickened, about 30 minutes. Preheat a grill to medium-high on one side. Season 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves with salt and pepper. Grill over direct heat until golden and crisp on both sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and toss with 1 cup of the sauce. Place on the cooler side of the grill; cover and cook, basting once, until the meat is glazed and reaches 165, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a zip log bag or bowl.
• Remove excess fat from chicken and add to bowl.
• Add chicken to bowl/bag and let marinate for 1 hour.
• Place saute pan on med/high heat and wait until hot.
• Add hand full of chicken to pan (with some marinade sticking to chicken). DO NOT overload the pan or you will steam the chicken.
• Cook until chicken is cooked and sauce turns a darker color.
• Remove cooked chicken and repeat from step 4/5 until all done.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the first six ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. Brush over cooked chicken.
