Grilled chicken recipes

[mdchiefsfan]

Looking to CP for assistance. We are grilling chicken tonight, and with the versatility of chicken, I am kind of flooded with the possibilities I can make. We want to do something different from what we generally make, so I am asking you, CP:

What is your favorite grilled chicken recipe, and your favorite sides to go with it?

P.S. I have already tried the antifreeze marinade, over an AIDS fire grill; would try again, just not tonight. :thumb:

I like to do a Santa Maria rub on chicken. When it's just about done I like to baste it with a little barbecue sauce. Sides are endless with BBQ chicken.


Grilled corn on the cob

Asaragus

Mash potatoes

Baked potatoes

Au gratin taters

Rice

Bread

any salad: tater salad, mac salad, green salad, pasta salad

Coleslaw

Beans

I buy it at the store, some chicken I leave dry. It's a great run for chicken. Weber has some liquid lemon chicken marinade I heard is good too.

I do a whole bird, split into two halves.

Overnight, marinate in:

Juice of two lemons, est from one lemon and toss the lemon skins in
4 cloves of garlic finely chopped
1/2 cup olive oil
a good portion of red pepper flakes, oregano, basil, rosemary
salt and pepper.

I cook over oak....I have a fire pit I light with 4 or five oak slits and when they are burned to coals, I put in Weber banked to a side and indirect cook the bird. I try to keep weber temp at 300 or close.

I'll keep an eye out for these. I love weber's BBQ sauce.

Going with the others, a marinate or Brine makes all the difference.

Here is a simple Brine I use, you would not believe how juicy a Brine makes chicken:

If you've got a Jaccard, use that on the breasts. It cuts down on the time needed for marinating, gives more surface area for a rub, and allows for the meat to cook faster and remain juicier.

One thing I like to do is make a homemade "Shake and Bake" on the grill. I use panko crumbs and parmesan cheese, along with spices, as the coating.

This also sounds really good. I am cooking the chicken tonight though, so overnight marinating is off the board. Bookmarked for sure.

*Looks up Jaccard* now I need one.

I bought the 48 blade version, from Amazon. I haven't had a single moment's regret. It really helps make lesser cuts of meat more tender.

I don't have to worry about buying rib eyes for pickier family members anymore. I buy chuck eyes and Jaccard them, and that keeps everyone happy without draining my wallet nearly as much.

It also works well for making chuck steak 'tips' more like working with sirloin tips.

Johnny's Jamaica Mistake marinade gives a nice flavor.

Yours is the winner. Rep! I just mixed it up and put it in the fridge. Serving with fresh green beans and rice.

There are a few others in here I want to try; I just had all of these ingredients in my house and didn't feel like running to the store. I will update come cook time.

Thanks, everyone.

Thanks for the advice. I will most likely get this one. Chuck eye steaks are awesome.

[Snapplez]

Mine is simple but I love it:
Black Pepper, Season Salt, and either Garlic Power or Garlic Salt.

Rub it in good after your put it on the chicken and its awesome

[lewdog]

I do an easy Teriyaki chicken that many people have liked but I usually use boneless, skinless chicken thighs for it.

I don't measure but oil, Yoshida, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder and a little lemon juice. Marinade in a bag for 24 hours. Mush and turn bag a few times during that period.

Cook 4-5 minutes per side for thin chicken. Should come out a good looking darkish brown color.

[FlaChief58]

I brine in a mix of oj, soy sauce with onion, spicy mustard, ginger, garlic, honey, tabasco and red pepper flakes for at least 4 hours. after that, rub them with your favorite rub, wrap with bacon and smoke with apple wood until your internal temp hits 165.For breasts, it's usually 1 1/2 hours @ 275

[Demonpenz]

Put on grill and drink beer with it.

[stonedstooge]

Freshly ground pepper, Season All, and cayenne pepper both sides, cook breast top side down to begin with, flip after about 25 minutes, cook another 10 minutes, glob on the Sweet Baby Rays Hickory/Brown Sugar Barbeque Sauce the last 15 minutes. Serve. Magnifico

[dannybcaitlyn]

This is the one I use which is pretty good. I'm going to give some of the others mentioned above a try.
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon black pepper
2 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon McCormick herb Chicken seasoning
1 teaspoon Lemon Pepper
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
3 tablespoon Barbecue sauce (your favorite)
1/4 cup zesty Italian
Put in mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly, then pour in 1 gallon bag. Place chicken in bag and squish to coat. Marinate for up to 4 hours.

[mdchiefsfan]

Getting there. Smells amazing. http://i1164.photobucket.com/albums/q561/Aequitas009/5B89977C-87F1-46D5-8F25-8B95547A6FF6_zpsmxhbcpnh.jpg

Also, is that your feet in the pic? Why the toe nail polish?

Judging by the angle, those are not his toes.

I'd guess blow-up doll but 'she' is too close to the grill (mine always melt).

So, I'm going with sister.

It really was. Great combo in those flavors. Had a Sam Adams Summer Ale to wash it all down. I am satiated. Now for a BJ from my flame retardant blow up doll, and I'll sleep like a baby. :D

I think I may try your suggestion next.

Looks like I'll be bbqing as well. Definitely will have a beer or two as well.

Other than bbq chicken.....I like to take chicken drums...put them on a rack and baste them w/ Olive Garden's Italian dressing. Simple....and really good.

When I make legs, I just season with salt and pepper then have a pick your sauce type of situation. I put out sweet chilli, BBQ, teriyaki, and ranch dressing. It tends to do well at parties since we pay $0.89/lb for drumsticks.
